You can use the PackageInfo to query information about the application package. This works both on iOS and Android.
import 'package:package_info_plus/package_info_plus.dart';
...
// Be sure to add this line if `PackageInfo.fromPlatform()` is called before runApp()
WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();
...
PackageInfo packageInfo = await PackageInfo.fromPlatform();
String appName = packageInfo.appName;
String packageName = packageInfo.packageName;
String version = packageInfo.version;
String buildNumber = packageInfo.buildNumber;
Known Issues #
iOS #
As noted on issue 20761, package_info on iOS
requires the Xcode build folder to be rebuilt after changes to the version string in pubspec.yaml
.
Clean the Xcode build folder with:
XCode Menu -> Product -> (Holding Option Key) Clean build folder
.
Check out our documentation website to learn more. Plus plugins documentation
Android (and potentially all platforms) #
Calling to PackageInfo.fromPlatform()
before the runApp()
call will cause an exception.
