I'm stuck in this phonegap project. Everything works perfect on Android and iOS <= 7 but fails on iOS >= 8.0. A popup-window appears with the message: "Can't find variable: device"
This is the message i get:
This is my HTML:

Yeah i tried that ofc diddn't work. I found out that the problem lies in the fact that you need to compile the plugin for ios before you can use it. And that is simply not possible on Windows machines. Something (Windows users) needs to think about.
