flutter-geolocator VS plugins

and from that background I want to know how the isMock property works to ensure that no one can bypass that logic, but unfortunately i couldn't find the logic for IOS, but for Android I found that ismocked comes from the java android.location.Location package with location.isMock(); or location.isFromMockProvider();

Note that iOS location requests can take up to 10 seconds as per docs: https://github.com/Baseflow/flutter-geolocator/issues/887 and https://developer.apple.com/documentation/corelocation/cllocationmanager/1620548-requestlocation?language=objc Also you cannot directly request always location permission more than once: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/corelocation/requesting_authorization_for_location_services

(This new version will be endorsed by google_sign_in: ^6.0.0, once this PR lands: https://github.com/flutter/plugins/pull/7191, probably next week. This was made a major version change so people can test and update at their own pace.)

Looking at the web version of the video player package which doesn't use textures but VideoElement DOM nodes, I'd guess that textures aren't supported.

It's not 100% true that Flutter doesn't offer any first party native features. These plugins are maintained by the Flutter team: https://github.com/flutter/plugins/tree/main/packages

Here's an example: https://github.com/flutter/plugins. As you can see, that repo has no "issues" tab. And it mentions that issues should be created on the Flutter repo itself

There's work in progress to create a new camera plugin using CameraX: https://github.com/flutter/plugins/pull/6158

The plugins is missing Issues tab currently. It's hard for developers who need to raise or find issues on packages.
