Flutter Workmanager is an open-source Flutter plugin that enables developers to execute Dart code in the background on both Android and iOS devices, even when the application is not actively running. It acts as a wrapper around native background task systems such as Android’s WorkManager and iOS background execution APIs, providing a unified interface for scheduling and managing tasks across platforms. The plugin is designed to handle asynchronous operations that need to run independently of the app’s lifecycle, such as syncing data, uploading files, fetching notifications, or performing maintenance tasks. It supports both one-off tasks and periodic tasks, allowing developers to configure execution frequency and constraints such as network availability or device state.
