How can I check if HCE is available on currently running device

It would be great if we could check if device supports hce before registering callback

There is an Android method to check for HCE. The plugin needs a new API call to support this.

packageManager.hasSystemFeature(PackageManager.FEATURE_NFC_HOST_CARD_EMULATION)

Until then, you could limit the app to android-19 and greater and require HCE in the Manifest.
