Implementation LG. Can we add a test? I think this will work in scenario. Mock dart sends a channel message, sets expectation on view controller.

Landing, Github says there are tasks pending, but if you click on the details they have succeeded.

Is this active on the latest flutter release? (1.18.0-dev.5.0) Or how do I make use of this? Having the same issue.

[gaaclarke]

@jockebq it's available in 1.18.0-dev.5.0 and later.

@gaaclarke I just tested it out, and it seems to work in landscape, but not in portrait. And I am having issues with filling the screen with the content on my flutter_webview_plugin.

@jockebq if you think you've found a bug can you file a new bug please with reproduction steps and expected / versus observed results?

Heads up, iOS doesn't provide a definitive way to hide the home indicator. You can request it to hide and it will take that preference into consideration. See https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uiviewcontroller/2887510-prefershomeindicatorautohidden?language=objc for more info.
