Cordova Common 5.0.1 Released!
2 February 2025 @ 12:00 am
We are happy to announce that [email protected] has been released. This is one of the libraries used behind-the-scenes by nearly all of the Cordova tooling and provides utilities for dealing with things like config.xml parsing.

Cordova 2024 recap and plans for 2025 - Meetup recording
31 January 2025 @ 12:00 am
We kicked off 2025 with a very successful virtual meetup! Thank you to everyone who attended, and a huge thanks to Bryan Ellis (@erisu) for preparing and hosting the meeting. We had over 100 registrations and more than 60 attendees.
The recording is available on YouTube, and you can find the slides here.
Bryan provided a recap of 2024, summarizing Cordova releases and milestones, and shared some plans for the current year. As always, we can't provide exact timelines since our work is entirely volunteer-driven. However, if you’d like to help us achieve our goals, you can start contributing at any time!
We also have plans for additional meetups to make contributing even more accessible. Stay tuned for more details!
Cordova needs you in 2025! Let's start with a meetup
8 January 2025 @ 12:00 am
The beginning of a new year is always a good opportunity for a project to reflect on the past year and make plans for the one ahead. As we wrapped up 2024, we had an idea that we’re excited to share: hosting another community meetup for Cordova.
This meetup will be an excellent chance to recap the recent releases and highlight some upcoming tasks. 2024 saw some promising contributions from new developers, and we’ve noticed growing interest in our project. This makes the meetup the perfect time to onboard new contributors and strengthen our community.
Without more committers, it will become increasingly challenging to maintain a steady release cycle and address the needs of our users. By bringing together experienced contributors and newcomers, we aim to foster collaboration and make future releases smoother. The release process is vital but can often feel overwhelming within the ASF framework. To address this, we are exploring ways to simplify it and provide clea
File Plugin 8.1.3 Released!
20 November 2024 @ 12:00 am
We are happy to announce that we have just released an update for cordova-plugin-file!
[email protected]
To upgrade:
cordova plugin remove cordova-plugin-file
cordova plugin add [email protected]
Release Highlights
This patch fixes an issue with FileEntry.toURL() on iOS devices when the app
is hosted through schemes. The intent for this API is to produce a URL that
can be used in the DOM, like image tags for example. However, iOS devices always
produced file:// URIs which is not usable when the webview is configured to
use schemes.
Starting with 8.1.3, FileEntry.toURL() will produce an app-scheme URI if the
iOS webview is configured to use app schemes, or a

File Plugin 8.1.2 Released!

We are happy to announce that we have just released an update for cordova-plugin-file!
[email protected]
To upgrade:
cordova plugin remove cordova-plugin-file
cordova plugin add [email protected]
Release Highlights
This patch is a regression fix. See 8.1.1 release blog post for more details.
In 8.1.1, the FileEntry.toURL() method broke when used on any file:// that didn't lead to the app's internal assets on Android. This is now corrected.
This bug didn't effect iOS devices.

Infinix recently unveiled the Hot 60i with the Helio G81 Ultimate chip at the helm, and now it has announced that it will soon launch the Hot 60 5G+ featuring a "One Tap AI Button."
The image shared by Infinix with us shows that the One Tap AI Button will be located on the right side of the Hot 60 5G+ below the volume rocker and power button. Infinix says it's a "smart and seamless shortcut that redefines user interaction" with the device and is designed for professionals, gamers, students, and regular users alike.

The iQOO 13 was launched in India in Legend and Nardo Grey colorways, which are now joined by a third color - Ace Green.
iQOO says the Ace Green colorway "draws inspiration from themes of composure, precision, and performance under pressure" and is "designed to reflect the mindset of high-performing individuals who lead by example."
The Ace Green iQOO 13 comes in 12GB/256GB and 16GB/512GB configurations, priced at INR54,999 ($645/€545) and INR59,999 ($700/€595), respectively. That's the same price as the Legend and Nardo Grey models. It will go on sale in India starting July 12 through...
The OnePlus 13T and OnePlus 13s are very similar devices that represent the brand's latest entry into the 'smaller-screen high-end device' space, and they've only been out for a few weeks at this point.
And yet, there's already a rumor about the upcoming OnePlus 15T and 15s (the brand is likely to skip the number 14 due to prevailing tetraphobia in some parts of Asia). According to this rumor, the next generation will have the same screen size.

However, they will both come with one more camera on the rear, going from two to three, and while the source of this rumor...
The Fairphone 6 launched last month with an expanded modular design, a better chipset, and a larger battery compared to its predecessor. This is still no flagship Android smartphone, but its key selling point isn't performance or battery life, it's repairability.
Thus, you might be interested to find out what the folks over at iFixit have to say about it - after all, they've been championing people's right to self-repair their devices for years, and Fairphone itself is also all about giving people that option. It's all good news for the Fairphone 6, as iFixit has found it to be the most...
Google is rumored to be unveiling the Pixel 10 family alongside the Pixel Watch 4 on August 20, and today a new leak purportedly brings us the sizes and colors for the company's next smartwatch.
The Pixel Watch 4 is said to come in 41mm and 45mm sizes, both with and without 4G LTE connectivity. The colorways will be called Obsidian, Lemon, Moonstone, Iris, and Porcelain. Obsidian should be black, Porcelain white, Iris purple, while we assume Lemon will be yellow-ish.
Google will also offer a two-tone leather band in Jade, an Active Band in Iris, Lemongrass, and Moonstone, an Active...
We already came across the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold7’s EPREL label yesterday which confirmed its battery endurance, alongside key info on durability, repairability and ingress protection.
We now have the same details for the Galaxy Z Flip7 which unsurprisingly shares identical scores in terms of overall energy efficiency (B), durability (A) and repairability (C) while also boasting an IP48 ingress protection rating. Flip7 does get a higher expected battery life on a single charge – at 42 hours and 4 minutes.

Honor made the Magic V5 official a couple of days ago, and today it's shared a new promo video for the phone, which is definitely different.
It shows the Magic V5 withstanding a simulation of very forceful pouring rain, which isn't that unexpected considering its IP59 rating for protection from high-pressure water jets. The phone is then frozen, then subjected to a very high temperature. Then things get weird.
Steel balls are being shot at the phone to make a point about its durability, and of course it withstands the impacts without any issue. See for yourself above.

Sony unveiled the Xperia 1 VII, its latest flagship smartphone, in May, and it's already been available in Japan for a while now. However, today the company has announced that it's temporarily suspending shipments and sales of the device in its home market.
This is due to many reports of Xperia 1 VII units turning off by themselves, randomly rebooting, and even not turning on. Obviously, any one of those three is a huge problem individually, but apparently all of them are currently happening in the wild.
To those who have an Xperia 1 VII that won't turn on, Sony suggests holding...
Nothing finally fully unveiled the Phone (3) at the beginning of this month, following a weeks-long teaser campaign. The company bills this as its first ever proper flagship smartphone, and while it being on par with the Ultras of the world is highly debatable, it is undoubtedly Nothing's highest-end device to date.
Just as expected, today the Nothing Phone (3) has gone up for pre-order. The campaign runs until July 15, when the phone will become available on open sale. You can pre-order one from Amazon using our widget below.

Samsung is announcing the much-leaked Galaxy Z Fold7 and Galaxy Z Flip7 at a special Unpacked event on July 9. While we've already known that, the company hasn't yet mentioned when the duo would go up for pre-order, nor what their release date is.
Thankfully, a new rumor today brings us exactly that information. So, the two new foldables will become available for pre-order on July 9 right after the event, and they will both be released on July 25.
That's quite a long pre-order period, but, if Samsung does the usual, expect there to be a lot of perks for those who do go this route -...
