Known Incompatible Cordova Plugins

While we've tested a number of popular Cordova plugins, it's possible Capacitor doesn't support every Cordova plugin. Some don't work with Capacitor or Capacitor provides a conflicting alternative. If it's known that the plugin is conflicting or causes build issues, it will be skipped when running npx cap update.

If you find an issue with an existing Cordova plugin, please let us know by providing the issue's details and plugin information.
