I'm looking for package or anyway to show popup, dialog or modal without needed open my app like . local notification but I don't want use local notification for customization , is there in flutter something like that ?
On Android, you can use a plugin that uses SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW
such that it utilizes the "Draw over other apps" permission in order to do what you describe.
An example plugin that does this is system_alert_window.
On iOS, this isn't possible. Some plugins will notify instead on iOS.

I want to create a hybrid mobile app using ionic capacitor. When user logs in the app should open the main angular app in a hidden webview to initialize the angular app. The webview should be hidden for this time. After this when a user clicks on any links in mobile app, it should open in the webview and this time the webview should be displayed. The webview should open in the app container and not in the browser window (like InApp browser). Please help me if anybody have explored this kind of solutions.
My existing app is built using Xamarin and its built on the above concept.
I have tried the InApp browser but it does not give a good impression to the end user expecting a complete mobile app.
What you want to do is more or less possible if I've understood you well. I've done it in my job. We have a ionic app, but then there are some native screens developed natively for Android (with Java) and iOS (with Swift). With ionic you can call native code from Javascript. For that you need to make your own local Capacitor plugin: https://capacitorjs.com/docs/plugins/creating-plugins
In a plugin, the ionic Javascript function will trigger a native function (Java/Kotlin for Android - Swift/ObjectiveC for iOS). Once there, you can freely create native screens (Android = Activity, iOS = Storyboard/Controller) and then launch your native screens in the app. In our project most of the app is ionic, but we developed our own native screens such as a PDF Viewer, a Web browser, a QR scanner, etc.
But an app is not like a website, an app is a stack of screens. Which means that everytime you access a new screen, it's added to the top of the stack and the user can go back to the previous one. So, ionic will launch first. Inmediately after starting the app (or whenever you want) you can move the user to a native (android/ios) screen. However, if the user presses the native android back button, he will come back to ionic. If you want to prevent that, you need to code that behavior yourself (google android prevent back button). Likewise, you "can't" make the user go from the native screen to ionic, you can bring him back to ionic by navigating back programmatically.
Perhaps you can also change the launch activity to use a different one, and then later launch the ionic activity with native code. But I haven't done this myself and it could break ionic, so I can't advice you through this path.
I hope my answer helps, but I'm not sure I understood what you want to accomplish.
How to make app in background like chat head of messenger when user but it in background and click on this bubble to open the app again .
I'm trying to use floaty_head package but it doesn't work .
I am assuming that you are referring to the Android Bubbles API documented here. If that's the case, at the time of this writing I don't believe there are ready to use 3rd party packages on pub.dev that allow you to achieve this. Your best option at the moment is to write that code natively yourself and integrate it with your Flutter application using channels.
I want my application to always show in a notification .It should be undismissable and it should be shown on notification bar always even app is off.
Try flutter_local_notifications plugin.
If you didn't find a plugin that satisfies your needs, just implement it on the native side.
Flutter is a UI framework. Use it as such.
Plugins wrap native capabilities and encapsulate them, but feel free to add native code that suits your needs.
I am working on flutter desktop application and want to show alert dialog before closing window. Could not get any information about detecting window closing action.
Can anyone tell me how to do this. Thankx.
You can do it using the existing flutter_window_close package. Check out the example here.
This plugin lets your Flutter app a chance to confirm if the user wants to close your app. It works on desktop platforms including Windows, macOS and Linux.
Try to explore as well bitsdojo_window.
So I am exporting a file created in my application with extension .abc
Now, if the user shares the file on whatsapp or telegram or any other platform and when other user tries to open the file, the "open with" dialog should appear with my application in the list.
I have tried following approach which does not work plus it is only for Android and I am looking for multi-platform solution to this.
Is it possible to register a Flutter app as an Android Intent Filter and to handle Incoming Intents?
I was able to compile the app using above method but could not populate "Open with" dialog with my app's name
Thank you for your time.
EDIT 1:
So I have successfully added this functionality for android but I am still trying to add the same functionality for my iPhone users.
Can someone please help me with swift code part in iOS ??
I am not familiar with swift language but I want my users to be able to use same functionality on both platforms.
I have found a solution for iOS:
You can use the Uni Links package to get the notifications into your Flutter app.
You then need to manually add the file types in the Info.plist for the XCode project. You can find an explanation for example here.
