Could it be that with the new Ionic & Cordova version, the plugin does not work anymore ? Im using Cordova 7.0.1 and Ionic 3.4.2 .

I cant import the Plugin to my project. I mean I can add it. But the logcat throws the error message it is not installed.

I'm having the same issue as well. I installed the plugin, but my app fails to build due to an error related to the plugin.

Ionic version: 3.4.0 Cordova version: 7.0.1

I noticed that the last commit to the repo was 2 years ago, but are there plans to update and maintain the plugin? If not, are there any alternatives for file encryption/decryption for ionic/cordova apps?

I plan on refactoring the process as well, as maintainability was much too difficult with the way I have it set up i.e. proper CI and testing against multiple major cordova-android/cordova-iosversions.

In terms of functionality I am using Facebook's Conceal for Android but am considering JNCryptor for compatibility between iOS/Android, as performance on Android devices has improved (which was a reason for using Conceal).

Thoughts?

Also as a mental note, given Ionic's popularity it will likely be worth testing explicitly against it as well. Likewise ng-cordova type support seems useful. I'll be organizing my thoughts more clearly in the coming days.
