--- layout: post author: name: Steve Gill url: https://twitter.com/stevesgill title: "Plugins Release" categories: news tags: release plugins --- The following plugins were updated today because they are being deprecated: * cordova-plugin-console: 1.1.0 * cordova-plugin-compat: 1.2.0 * cordova-plugin-device-motion: 2.0.0 * cordova-plugin-device-orientation: 2.0.0 `cordova-plugin-console` has been integrated into `cordova-ios@4.5.0+`. It is not needed anymore. Make sure to remove it from your projects if you plan on updating your `cordova-ios`! Similarly, `cordova-plugin-compat` has been integrated into the upcoming `cordova-android@6.3.0` release. Please remove it from your projects when you update to the latest version of `cordova-android`. `cordova-plugin-device-motion` and `cordova-plugin-device-orientation` have officially been deprecated. These plugins are being replaced by the built in [W3C Device Motion and Orientation APIs](https://www.w3.org/TR/2016/CR-orientation-event-20160818/), which are now supported on iOS, Android and Windows. Checkout the migration guides the PhoneGap team wrote for [Device Motion](https://blog.phonegap.com/migrating-from-the-cordova-device-motion-plugin-ddd8176632ed) and [Device Orientation](https://blog.phonegap.com/migrating-from-the-cordova-device-orientation-plugin-8442b869e6cc). ---- You can update any plugin by removing it, and then re-adding it.
