Device Permission

<manifest>
    ...
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE"/>
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />

Interact with RtcEngine/AgoraRtcEngineKit on Android/iOS

agora_rtc_engine has not implemented all the features of agora native (Android/iOS) sdk, due to performance reasons, such as Custom Audio Source and Renderer, Custom Video Source and Renderer, Raw Audio Data, etc. agora_rtc_engine provides RtcEnginePlugin/RtcEnginePlugin, allowing you to to interact with the RtcEngine created on the Flutter side in the Android/iOS code, you can implement your own plugin by inheriting RtcEnginePlugin/RtcEnginePlugin, and get the RtcEngine/AgoraRtcEngineKit in the onRtcEngineCreated callback. Please note that you should not call the RtcEngine.destroy/AgoraRtcEngineKit.destroy function on Android/iOS code, because it will affect the RtcEngine on the Flutter side. To see how to use RtcEnginePlugin, please check the custom audio source example:

Android：CustomAudioPlugin.kt

iOS：CustmoAudioSourcePlugin.swift
