OpenTok requires android.hardware.camera.autofocus?

I'm using the Tokbox/OpenTok Cordova Plugin in my app (which internally uses the native OpenTok Android SDK). But after uploading my apks to GooglePlay i've noticed that some users may not install the app since it sets <uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.camera.autofocus" android:required="true" /> which is a problem for older Android devices (e.g. Samsung GT-P5100 / Samsung Galaxy Tab2 10.1).

My question: Is autofocus really required to use opentok or could it be optional so all users can access the new version?

The official requirements for the Android SDK state:

The OpenTok Android SDK works with any Android 4.1+ device (Jelly Bean, API Level 16) that has a camera (for publishing video) and adequate CPU and memory support.

Thanks a lot!

Great point! Autofocus is not a requirement for the OpenTok Android SDK. I've updated the plugin.xml to the following: <uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.camera.autofocus" android:required="false" />

Here's a link to the updated Cordova-OpenTok-Plugin which uses iOS and Android 2.12.0 SDKs: https://github.com/opentok/cordova-plugin-opentok
