Error on Flutter with the URL_Launcher package

Question

Since yesterday, when I use a GestureDetector with the url_launcher package I'm getting this error:

E/flutter (17573): #0      _musicAreaState._launchURL (package:GiramosApp/ui/views/home_screen/widgets/music_area.dart:37:7)

Any thoughts?

Answer 1

I found the error, I don't know why but it works deleting the async function. So, the result it's:

launchUrl(url) {
   launch(url);
 }

On iOS it works with the async flavour, but not on Android.

Install the package properly using the steps given here . You should add a dependency of url_launcher in pubspec.yaml file. If you have done that,

To solve this issue you should clean the project using flutter clean , and then you upgrade your flutter using flutter upgrade . This will solve the problem for sure. If not, you create a new project and then paste the code in it.

From API30 (Android 11) onwards, your Android app has to list all apps it interacts with.
