Flutter App Crashes After Restart – Background Service Issue

[vihanrichard]

Hello everyone,


I’m working with Flutter App Development Services and running into a strange issue. My background service starts and runs properly, but when I open and close the app a second time, the app crashes.


Has anyone faced this before? I’m wondering if it’s related to lifecycle management or maybe a configuration issue. If you’ve worked at a Flutter App Development Company or dealt with similar cases, I’d love to hear your insights.


I also came across Webkul’s work in Flutter apps, has anyone here tried their approach or solutions for handling background services?


Thanks in advance!

I never used flutter before but your problem seems to be a code logic issue than a flutter issue.
Take this reply with a BIG grain of salt.

My background service starts and runs properly, but when I open and close the app a second time, the app crashes.

So, if i read correctly, your app firstly start your background service before running the flutter app.
Maybe the background service is still running even if the app is closed? Trying to start it twice?

• If your goal is to make start your background service only once, then check if the background service has already been started before and find a way to comminucate with it.
• If your goal is to only run the background service when the app is open, then stop the service when the app is closed.
