updating the app’s version number |
the default version number of the app is 1.0.0. |
to update it, navigate to the pubspec.yaml file |
and update the following line: |
version: 1.0.0+1 |
the version number is three numbers separated by dots, |
such as 1.0.0 in the example above, followed by an optional |
build number such as 1 in the example above, separated by a +. |
both the version and the build number can be overridden in flutter’s |
build by specifying --build-name and --build-number, respectively. |
in android, build-name is used as versionName while |
build-number used as versionCode. for more information, |
check out version your app in the android documentation. |
when you rebuild the app for android, any updates in the version number |
from the pubspec file will update the versionName and versionCode |
in the local.properties file. |

android release FAQ |
here are some commonly asked questions about deployment for |
android apps. |
<topic_end> |
<topic_start> |
when should i build app bundles versus APKs? |
the google play store recommends that you deploy app bundles |
over APKs because they allow a more efficient delivery of the |
application to your users. however, if you’re distributing |
your application by means other than the play store, |
an APK might be your only option. |

what is a fat APK? |
a fat APK is a single APK that contains binaries for multiple |
ABIs embedded within it. this has the benefit that the single APK |
runs on multiple architectures and thus has wider compatibility, |
but it has the drawback that its file size is much larger, |
causing users to download and store more bytes when installing |
your application. when building APKs instead of app bundles, |
it is strongly recommended to build split APKs, |
as described in build an APK using the |
--split-per-abi flag. |

what are the supported target architectures? |
when building your application in release mode, |
flutter apps can be compiled for armeabi-v7a (arm 32-bit), |
arm64-v8a (arm 64-bit), and x86-64 (x86 64-bit). |
flutter supports building for x86 android through ARM emulation. |

select build.gradle (module: app) in the project panel: |
next, select the build variant. click build > select build variant |
in the main menu. select any of the variants in the build variants |
panel (debug is the default): |
