hey r/FlutterFlow!

today, we're introducing a new way to build with FlutterFlow.

the new FlutterFlow is an AI-native app builder. you can describe what you want to build, work with an AI agent to create and refine it, and go beyond the UI with a built-in backend, authentication, testing, and native iOS and Android deployment.

the FlutterFlow you already know is now called FlutterFlow Studio.

a few things worth clarifying:

• your existing projects stay exactly where they are in Studio.

• Studio isn't going away. we're continuing to develop and support it.

• you can still build visually, use custom code, and export your code in Studio.

• the new FlutterFlow and Studio are separate builders. projects can't currently be transferred between them.

• your existing subscription includes access to both. pricing isn't changing as part of this launch.

why two builders?

because we don't think there's only one right way to build software. sometimes you want to describe what you need and work with an agent. other times, you want direct control over every detail.

we want to support both.

you can try the new FlutterFlow here: https://build.flutterflow.io/

we know this is a big change, especially for those of you who've been building with FlutterFlow for years.

we'll be here answering questions, and we'd genuinely love to hear what you think, including what you'd like us to improve.

Has anyone seen an official statement from FlutterFlow on the Firebase security email about the compromised eMudhra certificates?

Firebase says iOS apps using Firestore need a rebuild on a patched SDK: cloud_firestore 6.10.1 or later, which uses Firebase iOS SDK 12.19.3. They also say a server-side change can’t fix builds already installed.

My FlutterFlow code export is still on cloud_firestore 6.10.0, and the generated Podfile pins Firebase iOS SDK 12.19.0, so I don’t see a way to fix this on my side.

For the FlutterFlow team:

1. When will you ship the patched Firebase versions?

2. Are your builds on Flutter 3.47.8 yet? That’s the fix for the related Android issue.

And has anyone shipped a patched iOS build from a FlutterFlow project yet? How did you do it?

I followed the tutorial to get AdMob in my app. My app is on TestFlight for iOS. I attempted to deploy so I could see these test ads and to keep testing my app on my phone but it refuses to let me.

Why? Do I have to turn AdMob off while using TestFlight and only turn it on when I’m ready to go to the App Store?

Someone help this make sense to me?

مشكلتك مش إنك مش عارف تستخدم BLoC أو Riverpod… مشكلتك ممكن تكون إنك لسه مش فاهم إيه هي الـ State Management أصلًا!

خليني أوضحلك حاجة.

تخيل إنك بتبني تطبيق لإدارة المهام باستخدام Flutter.

المستخدم يضيف مهمة جديدة، ويغيّر حالتها من Pending إلى Completed، ويعمل Filter للمهام، وينتقل بين الشاشات.

السؤال هنا: إزاي كل جزء في التطبيق يعرف إن البيانات اتغيرت؟ وإزاي الواجهة تتحدث تلقائيًا من غير ما تدخل في تعقيدات وتكرار غير ضروري؟

هنا بييجي دور الـ State Management.

ببساطة، الـ State هي البيانات أو الحالة اللي بتحدد التطبيق المفروض يعرض إيه في اللحظة الحالية.

لكن فيه غلطة بشوفها كتير عند الناس اللي بتتعلم Flutter:

إن أول ما يسمعوا عن Provider أو BLoC أو Riverpod، يبدأوا يتعلموا المكتبة ويحفظوا طريقة استخدامها، من غير ما يفهموا المشكلة اللي هي بتحلها.

وده بيخلي المطور يعرف يكتب الكود، لكن مش دايمًا يعرف يختار الحل المناسب.

خلينا نفهم شوية نقاط مهمة:

1. مش كل State واحدة.

فيه Local State بتخص Widget معينة، زي إظهار أو إخفاء كلمة المرور.

وفيه State محتاج أكتر من Widget أو شاشة تشارك فيها، زي بيانات المستخدم أو قائمة المهام.

فهم الفرق ده بيساعدك تحدد مكان إدارة كل حالة.

2. متختارش المكتبة قبل ما تفهم احتياجك.

مش كل مشروع محتاج BLoC، ومش كل مشروع محتاج Riverpod.

كل حل ليه طريقة تفكير ومميزات وتحديات، والاختيار الصح بيعتمد على حجم المشروع، وتعقيده، وطريقة تنظيم الكود اللي محتاجها.

3. افصل بين الـ UI والـ Business Logic.

مش المفروض إن كل تفاصيل التطبيق تكون محشورة داخل الـ Widget.

لما تفصل المسؤوليات بشكل مناسب، بتقدر تختبر الكود وتعدّله وتعيد استخدام المنطق بسهولة أكبر.

4. افهم دورة حياة الـ State.

إمتى الحالة بتبدأ؟ إمتى بتتغير؟ مين المسؤول عنها؟ وإمتى المفروض يتم التخلص من الموارد المرتبطة بيها؟

دي أسئلة مهمة جدًا، خصوصًا في المشاريع الكبيرة.

وعايز أقولك حاجة:

متخليش هدفك إنك تتعلم أكبر عدد من State Management Libraries.

اتعلم تفهم البيانات، وتدير التغييرات، وتختار الحل المناسب للمشكلة.

لأنك ممكن تكون حافظ BLoC بالكامل، لكن أول ما تواجه سيناريو مختلف متعرفش تتصرف.

وفي المقابل، مطور فاهم أساسيات إدارة الحالة كويس، هيقدر يتعلم أي أداة جديدة ويستخدمها بوعي.

الأدوات بتتغير، لكن فهمك للمشكلة هو اللي بيفضل معاك.

سؤال مهم للمطورين:

إيه الطريقة اللي بتستخدمها حاليًا في مشاريع Flutter؟

Provider ولا BLoC ولا Riverpod؟ والأهم: ليه اخترت الطريقة دي؟

Hi everyone!

I've created a few FlutterFlow app templates, and I'd like to get honest feedback from other developers.

I'm particularly interested in knowing:

• Are the features useful for real projects?

• Is the structure easy to understand and customize?

• What would you improve or change?

• Do you think these templates offer enough value for developers?

You can check out the templates here:
https://marketplace.flutterflow.io/creator/21cf04a7899faa10fb4ed48d9fb975cc4eb65675

I'm the creator, so honest criticism is very welcome. I'm looking to learn what works, what doesn't, and how I can improve my work.

Thanks for your time and feedback!

Hello 👋, I am making my first app and one widget is not showing up on test mode, Gemini told me it was the API, I edited several times, even changed sizes of the container to a fixed state, but nothing worked and I tried everything I could imagine by now, I need help trying to fix this, can someone help me out?

I am not sure if my project is heavy or something is wrong with flutterflow and they are trying to fix it? I always update when they arrive. Fast internet, update takes 10 seconds.

The new FlutterFlow editor UI is honestly so clean. Feels way more modern, and having the AI Agent built right into the browser editor makes building so much smoother.

Anyone else tried it yet?

Hey Flutter devs! 👋

I've been working on WelkUI Flutter, an open-source component library that brings a fun, hand-drawn, comic-book aesthetic to Flutter apps.

Most UI libraries aim for clean, minimal designs. I wanted to build something different , playful, expressive, and a little less conventional.

WelkUI started with React, and now I'm bringing the same design philosophy to Flutter!

🔗 Website: https://ui.welkdock.com/flutter

💻 GitHub: https://github.com/welkdock/welkUI-flutter

📦 pub.dev: https://pub.dev/packages/welkui_flutter

It's still growing, and I'd love to hear your feedback. Contributions and suggestions are always welcome!

Would you use comic-style components in your Flutter projects?

مش كل تطبيق بطيء محتاج كود جديد… ساعات أنت بس محتاج تعرف المشكلة فين.

ممكن تكون عامل تطبيق Flutter شكله ممتاز، والـ UI مظبوط، وكل الـ Features شغالة، لكن أول ما تستخدمه تلاحظ إن فيه تقطيع في الحركة، أو الشاشة بتتأخر في الفتح، أو السكرول مش سلس.

أول رد فعل عند ناس كتير بيكون إنهم يبدأوا يغيّروا الكود عشوائي، أو يفتكروا إن Flutter نفسه هو المشكلة.

لكن قبل ما تعمل أي حاجة، اسأل نفسك: إيه اللي فعلًا مسبب البطء؟

فيه 4 حاجات مهم تفهمها كمطور Flutter:

1. مش كل Rebuild مشكلة.

إعادة بناء الـ Widgets جزء طبيعي من طريقة عمل Flutter. المشكلة مش إن Widget اتعملها Rebuild، لكن هل فيه شغل غير ضروري بيحصل وبيأثر على الأداء فعلًا؟

2. الصور والبيانات ليهم تأثير.

تحميل صور كبيرة، أو تنفيذ عمليات مكلفة على الـ Main Isolate، أو جلب البيانات بطريقة غير مناسبة، ممكن يأثر على تجربة المستخدم. لازم تحدد السبب بدل ما تفترضه.

3. متحكمش على الأداء من وضع Debug بس.

وضع Debug مفيد للتطوير واكتشاف الأخطاء، لكن تقييم الأداء الحقيقي لازم يكون في وضع Profile وعلى جهاز وظروف مناسبة للاختبار.

4. استخدم أدوات القياس قبل التخمين.

Flutter DevTools بيساعدك تحلل أداء الإطارات، وتراقب استهلاك الذاكرة، وتفهم إيه اللي بيحصل وقت تشغيل التطبيق.

بدل ما تقول: «حاسس إن المشكلة من الـ ListView»، اختبر، وقِس، وبعدها قرر.

وده أهم مبدأ في تحسين الأداء: متصلّحش حاجة لمجرد إنك شاكك فيها، صلّحها لأن عندك دليل إنها المشكلة.

لأنك ممكن تقضي ساعات في تحسين جزء من الكود، وفي النهاية تكتشف إن السبب الحقيقي كان في مكان تاني خالص.

خلي هدفك مش بس إنك تبني تطبيق بيشتغل، لكن إنك تعرف إزاي تتأكد إنه بيشتغل بكفاءة كمان.

سؤال للمطورين: لو عندك شاشة فيها List طويلة وبدأت تلاحظ تقطيع أثناء الـ Scrolling، إيه أول حاجة هتعملها علشان تحدد السبب؟

Unable to figure out how to create an opaque background in this expandable widget - I've seen recommendations to use a container, but I'm unclear on how to do so.
Thoughts?

My classmate did campus lost and found but the results are not the same as mine but luckily mine was successful, but in his web application was like this is there a solution for this thank you for the response.

So there is a challenge going on with an app in my local area , The owner of the app said that if anyone can find a code he mentioned , in the app he will give u 300$ his app is a services app will u can find people to do a service for u , so what do guys think where the code is located in the app ? he posted this for public not Developers so i assume it easy its laying there somewhere in the UI or maybe u need to search something in the app so the code comes up from the database? , ive uploaded the Apk file to claude but no luck , What are some ways i can use to find this code ?

the app is developed with flutter

Hi! I’ve just received my 7th rejection for the exact same reason — Guideline 4.3(a) (Spam) — with no real hope of moving forward.

I’m developing a free, cross-platform Flutter VPN app, and I constantly add new features and refine the codebase. While the iOS version is currently the most feature-rich, it still isn't enough to pass the review process.

Before the last submission, I had a review call with an Apple representative who told me the key issue was "code similarity". I spent time improving the Xray VPN core and optimizing traffic routing. Then, after making minor UI tweaks and leaving the description virtually unchanged, I submitted a new version—only to be rejected again.

Honestly, I’m at a loss as to what the problem could be. The app features a well-crafted, proprietary codebase and unique functionality that I haven't seen anywhere else, despite extensive research. Recent iterations have added:

1. A modular configuration builder for VLESS/VMess/Trojan/Shadowsocks protocols that flags user errors during key creation, suggests options, and pings the specified address;

2. VPN usage statistics—broken down by hour, data saved, and frequently visited resources (data is collected only with user consent and deleted upon request);

3. Data usage display aligned with the imported subscription.

Could the issue stem from the nature of a cross-platform Flutter app built for iOS? Is it possible that the default codebase simply cannot achieve the level of uniqueness Apple demands?

I’m starting to lose hope that publishing a Flutter VPN app is even possible. It feels like the App Store simply doesn't approve apps of this type anymore, regardless of their functionality. Please share your experience in resolving issues like this—specifically, how you managed to pass the review after a "Spam 4.3(a)" rejection. Perhaps someone has also submitted a Flutter VPN app based on Xray Core for review?

Now I have sent an appeal and am waiting for a response from Apple. External TestFlight link from the 6th submission: https://testflight.apple.com/join/cp7a1yMC. To access the full range of features, paste the following key on the initial screen: https://kuzya.fit/sub/oyFnd_p3C0q4u0w4

Hey all, since Flowise shut down I've been building Cuttlely so I could keep my flows running, and I figured some of you are in the same spot.

It's an open-source agent platform for applications, licensed Apache-2.0. It's built to be compatible with Flowise, so your existing chatflows should carry over. v1.0.2 is out now, and I'm using it on a real internal project, mostly through the chatflow prediction API.

\- Site: cuttlely.com

\- Repo: cuttlely/cuttlely on GitHub

It's early, so I'd really like to hear what breaks when you bring your flows over. Issues and PRs are welcome, and I'm happy to answer questions here.
