Due to the inner workings of Android's wifi manager, if the network is hidden, an SSID-based probe request will be used - but there was no way to enable this option.
See https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/wifi/WifiConfiguration.html#hiddenSSID
Could not see any other logical methods to implement this.
It allows Android to connect to hidden SSID's - iOS has no problem doing so, but Android does.
:point_up:
None, if isHiddenSSID is not set then the plugin acts as normal.
