isn't the dependency handled automatically by the plugin manager?

The plugin manager handles the Python dependencies, of which this plugin has none outside of what would normally already be present for OctoPrint.

Installing the v4l2-ctl program will vary by system. The FAQ for that error message describes how to install it for most Linux systems: https://github.com/The-EG/OctoPrint-CameraSettings/blob/main/docs/faq.md#i-get-an-error-v4l2-ctl-not-installed

However, Android is not 'most Linux systems.' I do not believe that the camera has Video4Linux support on Android and I'm not sure if it would even be possible to install v4l-utils.

Unfortunately, OctoPrint will let you install this plugin on Octo4A because it reports the system as 'Linux,' but as far as I am aware, it is not compatible with that setup. You will likely need to control the camera settings through whatever app you are using to stream it.
