How to build .apk & .ipa in Flutter, using Android Studio?

I am new to Flutter developement. I kept reading, understanding & following Flutter Documentation and has created my first flutter app in Android Studio IDE. It is working fine in android emulators.

Now I want to test application in iOS simulator but I don't know how to generate build for iOS.

Is it possible to generate .ipa through Android Studio IDE? If yes then how can I do that? Also I can not build .apk, what are the steps for that?

Thanks in Advance...

Can I build APK without Android Studio?

You can use gradle commands depending on which variant you want. For example, ./gradlew installDebug will make a debug apk and load it onto a connected device (though it won't open it like Android Studio does).

Where can I create APK?

In the Android menu, go to Build > Build Bundle(s) / APK (s) > Build APK(s). Android Studio will start building the APK for you. Once done, a pop-up on the bottom right will notify you of its completion. Click the 'locate' button in this dialog.

What is build APK?

The build process involves many tools and processes that convert your project into an Android Application Package (APK) or Android App Bundle (AAB). The build process is very flexible, so it's useful to understand some of what is happening under the hood.

You can use

flutter build apk --release 
flutter install

To build for iOS you need a Mac, because it depends on XCode to compile parts of the application.
