It is an open source framework that provides a wrapper around `BillingClient` , `StoreKit` and the RevenueCat backend

## Capacitor
The Cordova plugin is not guaranteed to be up to date and we are moving our efforts to the Capacitor plugin.
Please consider using our [Capacitor plugin ](https://docs.revenuecat.com/docs/capacitor ) instead of the Cordova plugin and this wrapper.

Please follow the [Quickstart Guide ](https://docs.revenuecat.com/docs/ ) for more information on how to use the SDK
## Latest changes to this plugin
This latest release updates the plugin to use BillingClient 6 in Android. If you come from an older version of the
RevenueCat SDK, see [Android Native - 5.x to 6.x Migration ](https://www.revenuecat.com/docs/android-native-5x-to-6x-migration )
for a more thorough explanation of the new Google subscription model announced with BillingClient 5 and how to take advantage of it.
If your app supports product changes using [DEFERRED replacement mode ](https://www.revenuecat.com/docs/managing-subscriptions#google-play ),
then you can either stick with the previous major version until support for DEFERRED is re-introduced in this major version,
or you can remove DEFERRED replacement options from your app.
