We have answered the most frequently asked questions for you here — if your question is not included, don't hesitate to contact us by [Email](mailto:support@capawesome.io) or via [Discord](https://discord.gg/VCXxSVjefW). Why should I use Capawesome plugins? Writing and maintaining native iOS and Android code is slow, expensive, and easy to get wrong. Our plugins give your team a shortcut: drop in a battle-tested SDK and ship features in days instead of weeks — without hiring native specialists. Can I trust these plugins in production? Yes — Capawesome plugins power apps used by millions of people every day, from indie startups to Fortune 500 companies. They are built and maintained by official Ionic Developer Experts, with regular updates, security patches, and a public changelog you can follow. Are the plugins free? Many of our plugins are open-source and free forever under the MIT license. Advanced plugins — like Biometrics, OAuth, SQLite, NFC, and Bluetooth LE — are part of the [Insiders program](/insiders/), with transparent flat-rate pricing and no per-seat or per-app fees. Which platforms do the plugins support? All plugins work on iOS and Android, and most also run on the web. They are designed for Capacitor and Ionic apps, so you can ship one codebase to every platform your customers use. Will the plugins keep working when Apple or Google ships new OS versions? Yes. We update our plugins regularly to stay compatible with the latest iOS and Android releases, new Capacitor versions, and the latest security requirements — so your app keeps running without surprise breakage. What kind of support do you offer? Community support is available on [GitHub](https://github.com/capawesome-team/) and [Discord](https://discord.gg/VCXxSVjefW). Insiders subscribers get priority email support with fast response times, and Enterprise customers get a dedicated Slack or Discord channel with direct access to the maintainers. Can you build a custom plugin for us? Yes. If you need a feature that no plugin offers yet — or a tailored variant of an existing one — our team builds production-ready Capacitor plugins on contract.
