Is there a way to get encryption on file uploads/downloads when using the file transfer plugin? Or is it sufficient to download/upload to a server that's using https?

https should be efficient, assuming the server's ssl configuration is modern

https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/ is a free service that can test and tell you the quality of your encryption of the server (e.g. whether it accepts poor or weak ciphers, etc)

None of the current & existing release supports API 31. You would have to apply manual changes to the Cordova-Android core code to make it work.

The main git branch has already applied the changes, but there is no ETA for the next release.

@erisu once what I need to do - add android:exported="true" to main activity to fix this error


* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':app:processReleaseMainManifest'.
&gt; Manifest merger failed : Apps targeting Android 12 and higher are required to specify an explicit value for `android:exported` when the corresponding component has an intent filter defined. See <https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/activity-element#exported> for details.```
after I fixed migration to `androidx.core:core:1.7.0` of `cordova-plugin-camera` plugin 😉

```FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:

Does anyone else have extended HTTP2 delays on network requests? Oftentimes we can see stalls on the request going out, but we‘re not sure if this is a chromium bug or a protocol issue or something related to the web view. I guess I’m wondering if anyone using HTTP2 to has really fast Network latency as would be expected after moving from HTTP 1.1.
