Here are also a few blueprint screenshots for you to get a better idea what can be achieved with this plugin:
- Show native system dialogs like date/time pickers
- Open apps and show more dialogs
- Set alarms/timers
- Open maps in a certain location or address
- Share text and images in multiple ways (email, sms, social media and messengers)
- Obtain info about any system feature of your Android device
With existing example project, you should be able to build an app like one in this short demo video:
have you tested it with oculus go? I am especially interested in opening other apps, is there a component that allows to detect if the app I want to open is installed and if not to trigger an event? That would be great
