Is Flutter down? User reports show no current problems with Flutter

Is Flutter Down Right Now?

Flutter is an open toolkit from Google for building apps from one codebase. Developers write in Dart and ship to Android, iOS, web, and desktop. This page tracks the Flutter status through build errors, tool problems, and package issues that developers report.

Is Flutter down? The framework runs on your own machine, so a true outage is rare. Still, pub.dev delivers the packages almost every project needs, and a fault there stops builds worldwide. Reports here show if a Flutter problem is local or shared by many teams.

Is Flutter Down for Me or Everyone?

Create a fresh sample project and build it. If the sample builds, your project or its dependencies hold the fault. If even the sample fails, your SDK install or machine setup needs attention first.

Check whether the failure started after an SDK upgrade or a dependency change. Those two events explain most sudden breakage. When builds fail for a whole team after a pub.dev incident, the shared Flutter outage is the cause.

Why Does Pub Get Fail in Flutter?

Pub get downloads your project packages from pub.dev and your private hosts. Network blocks, a bad version constraint, or a pub.dev outage can all stop it. The error names the package that failed, and that is your first clue.

Check your connection and any proxy or firewall rules on office networks. Clear the pub cache when a downloaded package looks damaged. If version solving fails, loosen the constraint that conflicts with the rest of your list.

Why Is Hot Reload Not Working?

Hot reload injects code changes into the running app, and some edits fall outside what it can patch. Changes to main, native code, or dependencies need a full restart instead. A stale session after a branch switch can also silently stop reloads.

Restart the run session when reload stops responding. Check the console for a lost connection message, which appears when the app or emulator died in the background. Rebuilding the app clears most stubborn cases.

Why Does Flutter Doctor Show Errors?

Flutter doctor checks your toolchain and reports missing or broken pieces. License prompts, missing command line tools, and old Android SDK pieces are the usual findings. Each line names the check that failed and often the command that fixes it.

Work through the list from top to bottom, because early failures hide later ones. Accept the Android licenses when asked. Doctor warnings about a second Flutter install can also explain strange build behavior.

Common Flutter Problems and Fixes

Waiting for another flutter command message

Waiting for another flutter command message: A crashed tool run left the startup lock behind. Close other Flutter and Dart processes, then try again. Deleting the lock file inside the SDK cache works when no process is running.

Gradle build fails on Android

Gradle build fails on Android: Read the first Gradle error, since later lines repeat it. Mismatched Java, Gradle, and plugin versions cause most failures. The versions in a fresh sample project give you a known good set to compare.

App builds but crashes at launch

App builds but crashes at launch: Check the device log for the first exception. Missing plugin registration and bad asset paths are common causes. A clean build after deleting the build folder removes stale native pieces.

Emulator will not start

Emulator will not start: Free disk space and memory first, because emulators need both. A damaged virtual device image also blocks startup. Creating a fresh device image is faster than repairing a broken one.

Packages conflict after an upgrade

Packages conflict after an upgrade: Run the dependency solver output and read which two packages disagree. Update the one with the older constraint, or pin a shared dependency version. The solver message names the exact conflict chain.
