I was wondering if I can set up and use both Android and iOS simulators simultaneously when I develop my flutter app? It makes things easier and allows me to catch platform-specific bugs earlier.
Is this possible?
You can run multiple emulators at the same time simply by running your app again. When the AVD manager pops up, instead of selecting your already running emulator, click 'Launch Emulator' and select another emulator to launch.
Flutter is an open source framework developed by Google that lets you build natively compiled, multiplatform applications from a single codebase. Flutter 3 supports six platform targets: Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, Linux, and web applications. Flutter widgets are built using a modern framework inspired by React.
Yes. If you have both iOs and Android emulators running, you can use the command flutter run -d all
to launch on both devices. If you want to launch on one device with both open, you will have to specify which one by telling it the device id, like flutter run -d emulator-5554
.
While developing I like to have the iOs emulator open for debugging in case I want to jump in and see the value of a particular variable at a particular moment, and the android emulator for running the app / designing / iterating.
