If you are sending the image to PHP Laravel Server. Try reducing the size of the image while sending it to the server. I used Image Picker package to reduce the size of the image.

var image = await ImagePicker.pickImage(source: imageSource, imageQuality: 50, maxHeight: 500.0, maxWidth: 500.0);

Then create a multipart file with that image, add it to form data, and send the form data to the server using post request with dio library. See @Elialber Lopes answer for sending the data.

It worked for me.
