I'm studying some possibilities to use in my project, I would like to know if I can to communicate a Watch OS project with the IOS flutter project.
At the moment, neither watchOS, nor Android Wear is supported by Flutter.
The lack of watchOS support is due to the lack of Bitcode support for iOS, as discussed in this GitHub issue. You can track the state of Adding Bitcode support for iOS - Flutter GitHub issue, but currently it seems to have a low priority for the Flutter development team.
For Android Wear, there seems to be no official reasons, but it is still not supported. You can track the progress of that in this GitHub issue.
There are open issues about watchOS and Android Wear

Flutter 3 was released recently with Desktop platform support for Windows, Linux and macOS.
Can Flutter developers clarify if Flutter 3 also supports Webview on Windows, Linux and macOS? Flutter documentation seems to suggest Webview support exists only for Android and ios.
Would appreciate some insights as I have a project that requires Webview, and if Flutter 3 supports it on all platforms it would make my work a lot easier. (I am asking here before trying out Flutter myself as I am completely unfamiliar with Flutter, and need to know about Webview status before I invest my time to learn Flutter).
(Note: Please do not go on a tangent and focus on "why webview" or whether it is apt etc. as I have no choice in the matter - it's one of the stated requirement of the project and I cannot change it).
No Flutter 3 Does not support Webview on Desktop, however you can use a package -

Is it possible to build a fully functioning application for iOS and Android using AndroidStudio + Flutter and FireBase alone? This is my first time trying to make a fully functioning mobile application which I want to use as I am constrained with my finances at the moment. I would appreciate the clarification.
Yes, it is possible to make both Android and IOS app using flutter and dart.
Flutter has many benefits. here some example :
Flutter hot reload helps you to build your app very fast.
User fluent. Can use app with excellent user interface design.
It's easy to use function like other OOP languages.
Update everyday with new features.
Flutter user community is increasing day by day .
Check the flutter docs for more info
Yes, Flutter can produce a fully functioning application for both iOS and Android platforms.
there are some apps built with Flutter. check them here
I am a native Android developer and I did some iOS as well. I started learning Flutter a couple of days ago and it seems promising.
Recently I've found out about Flutter being able to support desktop applications as well. I'm just curious how far this technology is and if any of you had success porting your mobile apps to the desktop. If so, what was the experience like? Are desktop-specific features like windows, mouse interaction, desktop notifications, etc. supported?
It was demonstrated at the Flutter Live event in December, but nothing official has been released that I'm aware of.
Flutter for Desktop was launched as alpha build at flutter interact 2019.
The official documentation is available at https://flutter.dev/desktop
The following video describes how to run your flutter app on a MacOS
You can watch the following video is you don't wanna read the docs

A simple app is created using android studio and we can easily see the options available to port the code to all platforms. For example, if you create a default app using android studio, the mouse event will help you to tap on a button and increase the count.
Regarding the experience, it feels good to write a single code and port/deploy on any platform. Using VSCode or android studio, both are helpful.
I am starting to work on one big project which includes Sirikit, Game Center, Fingerprint, health kit and home kit etc.
So my doubt is can I implement those features & other features which are provided by ios using the flutter..?
Flutter can't generate bitcode. So, it can't integrate features like Siri, interactive notifications, watchOS, tvOS, Today and other modern extensions.
It compiles like it was before 2015. Before iOS extensions. With same limitations.
Yes and no - you could definitely use some and probably all of those, but you'll have to write Platform Channels. I use fingerprint for example in my app.
There may exist plugins for some of the functionality - see the flutter packages page.
as the title described my issue , my question seems to be dumb a little ; But because I don't own an Android device , But I published Android Apps using Genymotion Emulators. And I tried to download Unity Remote App on my Emulator but it does not work that well.
So my question here is : Can I use my iPhone device to test and develop the game that will be published to android users?
Yes, it is possible to do that since the Input methods being touches do not differ. The only thing you have to keep in mind is the wide range of resolutions used by android devices.
You can use can use your iphone for testing but jusst for the logic. The performance and resolutions are very different for android. Also if there is any platform specefic code you have written in unity then you have to take care of that.
Besides using your iPhone you can generate an APK from unity and install it on the android emulators to test.
