Cross-platform age range detection for Capacitor apps. Uses Google Play Age Signals on Android and Apple DeclaredAgeRange on iOS.

A unified, free, and lightweight age range plugin:

• Cross-platform - Single API for both Android and iOS
• Privacy-preserving - No birth dates collected, only age ranges
• Regulatory compliance - Meet COPPA, KOSA, and regional age-appropriate design requirements
• Automatic mapping - Platform-specific responses mapped to a unified format
• Modern package management - Supports both Swift Package Manager (SPM) and CocoaPods
• Zero dependencies - Minimal footprint beyond platform SDKs

Note: The major version of this plugin follows the major version of Capacitor. Use the version that matches your Capacitor installation (e.g., plugin v8 for Capacitor 8). Only the latest major version is actively maintained.

npm install @capgo/capacitor-age-range
npx cap sync

• iOS 15+ (plugin compiles and runs, returns NOT_AVAILABLE on older versions)
• iOS 26+ for actual age range functionality (DeclaredAgeRange framework)
• Xcode 26+

Add the com.apple.developer.declared-age-range entitlement to your app:

1. In Xcode, select your target → Signing & Capabilities
2. Click + Capability → search for Declared Age Range
3. Enable it

Or add manually to your *.entitlements file:

<key>com.apple.developer.declared-age-range</key>
<true/>

On iOS, requestAgeRange() presents a system dialog where the user (or their guardian via Family Sharing) declares their age range. The ageGates option controls the age boundaries shown in the dialog (default: [13, 16, 18]).

• Android API 24+ (minSdk)
• Google Play Store installed and up to date

On Android, the plugin queries Google Play Age Signals API in the background — no user prompt is shown. The Play Store determines the user's age verification status from their Google account.

No additional permissions or manifest changes are needed.

Not supported. The web implementation throws 'AgeRange does not have web implementation'.
