local_biometrics_manager 0.1.2

Biometric authentication for Flutter on Android and iOS: fingerprint, face and iris detection, device-credential fallback, custom prompts and a live status stream.

Changelog

0.1.2

• Fix: BiometricRequest.allowedTypes was accepted but ignored by the native layers. Including deviceCredentials (or any) now permits the device PIN/pattern/passcode on both platforms. Documented clearly that the OS does not allow forcing a single biometric modality (face-only / fingerprint-only).
• Fix: BiometricStatus.availableTypes now means "hardware present" on both Android and iOS (iOS previously gated it on enrolment), so the field is consistent cross-platform. Use isEnrolled / isAvailable for usability.
• Add enrolment-aware canAuthenticateStrong / canAuthenticateWeak to BiometricHardwareInfo.
• Docs: clarified that has*Sensor and isBiometricSupported report hardware capability, not enrolment.

0.1.1

• Add Swift Package Manager support for iOS (alongside CocoaPods).
• Shorten the package description to meet pub.dev length guidelines.
• Rename the Android/Kotlin namespace to com.solax.umer.
