After Capacitor 6 upgrade, all plugins are "not implemented on android"

[Leo Jiang]

Bug Report

I upgraded to Capacitor 6 yesterday, then spent half a day trying to fix "plugin is not implemented on android" errors.

Plugin(s)

I think it affects every plugin, but confirmed the error occurs with:

"@capacitor/clipboard": "^6.0.0",
"@capacitor/geolocation": "^6.0.0",
"@capacitor/share": "^6.0.0",
"@capacitor/splash-screen": "^6.0.0",
"@codetrix-studio/capacitor-google-auth": "^3.4.0-rc.1",

Capacitor Version

[error] Xcode is not installed
[success] Android looking great! 👌

Platform(s)

Android 14

Current Behavior

Using any plugin triggers "[plugin name] plugin is not implemented on android"

Expected Behavior

No errors like in Capacitor 5

Other Technical Details

Additional Context

Tried:

• npx cap migrate
• npx cap sync android
• Deleted android folder, then npx cap add android
• Deleted node_modules, then yarn
• Restarted Android Studio, clean project, reload from disk, rebuild, etc
• Created a whole new project, npx cap init, npx cap add android, etc. Still doesn't work

If I use my old Android build with Capacitor 5 plugins, but load a webview containing the JS for Capacitor 6 plugins, every plugin still works. Plugins all work on iOS.
