Flutter Device Manager

The ultimate wireless ADB & Android device companion for Flutter developers inside Visual Studio Code.

⚡ Overview

Say goodbye to tangled cables, disconnected terminals, and hunting for IP addresses.

Flutter Device Manager turns VS Code into a comprehensive, native command center for your physical phones, emulators, and wireless devices. Pair wirelessly in seconds using QR codes, mirror screens with ultra-low latency via scrcpy, forward ports with adb reverse, filter real-time Logcat streams, and test deep links — all without leaving your editor.

✨ Key Features at a Glance

🚀 Deep Dive

1. 📶 Wireless ADB & QR Pairing

• Interactive QR Code (Android 11+): Displays a live QR code with an automatic 60-second validity countdown. Open Wireless Debugging → Pair with QR code on your Android device and scan the screen to pair instantly.
• 6-Digit Pairing Code: Standard manual pairing with host, pairing port, and code.
• Legacy TCP/IP (Android 10 & below): Switch connected USB devices to wireless mode (adb tcpip 5555) with a single click.
• Device History: Remembers your devices. Reconnect individually or hit ⚡ Auto-Connect All to re-establish your entire multi-device workstation.

2. 🖥️ Scrcpy Screen Mirroring

• Launch low-latency, crystal-clear screen mirroring directly from the device card or toolbar.
• Control your mobile device using your computer's keyboard and mouse.
• Launches asynchronously without blocking VS Code or holding terminal processes hostage.

3. 🔄 Network Port Forwarding (adb reverse)

• Testing physical devices against a local backend (http://localhost:8080, localhost:3000, etc.) often fails because the mobile device is on a different network interface.
• Flutter Device Manager manages adb reverse tcp:<port> tcp:<port> with a friendly UI. Add, inspect, and remove active forwards in one click.

4. 📋 Live Logcat Stream with Presets & Auto-Scroll

• Smart Auto-Scroll: Streams the latest log lines automatically. Pauses intelligently when you scroll up to inspect a stack trace. Toggle auto-scroll with one click.
• 1-Click Quick Preset Filters:
  • 🌐 All Logs: Full raw device stream.
  • 💙 Flutter Only: Isolates Flutter framework and engine output.
  • 💥 Fatal Crashes: Filters directly for AndroidRuntime:E exceptions and crash traces.
  • 📡 Network / HTTP: Isolates Dio, OkHttp, Retrofit, and HTTP request logs.
• Search by keyword, filter by level (Verbose, Debug, Info, Warn, Error), pause stream, copy, and export to .txt.

5. 🔗 Deep Link & Intent Dispatcher

• Test app deep linking without manually typing lengthy adb shell am start terminal commands:

  adb shell am start -a android.intent.action.VIEW -d "myapp://checkout?orderId=1024"
  

• Enter your custom URI or HTTPS link, select the target device, and dispatch directly to the screen.

6. 📱 Application Management & Toggles

• Clear Data & Cache: Instant pm clear to reset app state without uninstalling.
• App Info & Permissions: Jump straight to the phone's Application Info settings page.
• Toggle Wi-Fi: Test network disconnects and offline sync behavior instantly.
• Install APK: Pick any .apk from your file system with real-time install feedback.
• Open ADB Shell: Launches an interactive shell terminal focused on the target device.
