In the past, Android only supported use of Fingerprint for keystore access. But since Android 10, the BiometricPrompt API allows use of 3D facial recognition and other secure biometric methods.

This feature is available on the Pixel 4 and more and more apps are using it. It would be truly great if this plugin could be updated to support this new API to extend biometric functionality to more android users.

Sadly, this plugin doesn't seem to be actively maintained anymore. Other cordova plugins like Fingerprint-AIO already support BiometricPrompt. However, Fingerprint-AIO doesn't support storing of encrypted credentials in the keychain yet so switching to that isn't possible yet. Would be awesome if the issue on fingerprint-aio would be resolved.

Can we use AIO plugin with secure storage plugin?

I think the best solution for now is to include this plugin + AIO plugin and use this plugin only to save in the keystore and use AIO to make the biometric authentication.

AIO already has keychain functionality now.. go ahead with that.. this plugin is drop dead!
