Android Studio not showing Logcat with Flutter

Question

I\'m using Android Studio for Flutter App Development. Everything seems to be working fine just that the Android Studio does not show the \"logs\" in Logcat

Answer 1

When I first came to Flutter from an Android background, I didn't know where to find the log statements. I didn't care so much about all of the system messages. I just wanted to see log messages from my app during development. This answer is for people like that, not for people who specifically need LogCat itself.

In Flutter apps you can log text using the print() statement.

print('hello');

As others have said, you can use the Run tab in Android Studio to view these logged comments.

Here is the code for main.dart:

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

void main() {
  runApp(MaterialApp(
    home: Center(
      child: RaisedButton(
        child: Text('Button'),
        onPressed: () {
          print('hello'); //               <-- logging
        },
      ),
    ),
  ));
}
