π Core Updates
(1) Update Google Play Policy π₯
Supported: All Apps

(1) Update easy_paypal to Comply with Google Play Policies β¬
Supported: All frameworks
Updated the easy_paypal package to replace the old PayPal Data Collector SDK (com.paypal.android.sdk:data-collector) with the policy-compliant Braintree version (com.braintreepayments.api:data-collector:4.31.0). This resolves Google Play rejections caused by the old SDK collecting device location without prominent disclosure.

Supported: All frameworks(Extended source code only)
Fixed a build failure on extended source code caused by stripe_android and stripe_ios requiring compileSdk β₯ 36 due to updated androidx dependencies (activity, core-ktx, browser, navigationevent), while the project was still targeting android-35.

(12) External links open in the system browser instead of in-app WebView

+ "webViewMode": "webViewFlutter", // `inAppWebView` or `webViewFlutter`
+ "alwaysClearWebViewCache": false,
+ "alwaysClearWebViewCookie": false,
+ "webViewScript": "",
+ /// List of domains that should open the external app instead of the webview.
+ /// Just add the domain name only, do not add full URL. For example: "example.com"
+ /// If not set, we will use our default list from [kExternalDomains]
+ "externalDomains": [],
+ /// List of domains that should be loaded in the webview.
+ /// If the list is empty, all domains will be opened in the webview if it is
+ /// not in [externalDomains]. Otherwise, if the domain is not in this list, it
+ /// will be opened in the external browser.
+ /// Just add the domain name only, do not add full URL. For example: "example.com"
+ "internalDomains": [],
+ },
