The documentation of the Android SDK states that:
This method was deprecated in API level 28.
The ability for apps to trigger scan requests will be removed in a future release.
Do you know if there will be an alternative API for the same purpose?
Also will the plugin prevent crashes if in a future Android release if an app using the plugin will try to scan for networks?
