I want to add video filters and I'm working on Android. When I read the doc of this package, i could see that there're filters for only ios. And I want to know if it's possible to add video filters on Android. Please help me.

Research direction
The issue requests video filters for Android, similar to existing iOS filters in the library. The repository has iOS filter implementation; developers should study that code (likely in the iOS native module) and propose an Android equivalent. Comments in the issue may contain suggestions or progress. Key files to examine include the iOS filter implementation and the Android native module (e.g., Kotlin/Java files). Consider using Android's MediaCodec or OpenGL for real time filters. A solution would involve creating a new native module for Android filters, possibly reusing iOS logic where applicable.
