when i call launchUrl (url_launcher 6.2.2) it's not working or outstanding.
I want to open goole drive with link.
final Uri url = Uri.parse("googel drive link share all people have");
bool res = await launchUrl(url);
if (!res) {throw Exception('Could not launch url');}
Try this:
import 'package:url_launcher/url_launcher.dart';
final String googleDriveLink = "https://drive.google.com/your-link-here";
final Uri url = Uri.parse(googleDriveLink);
try {
bool launched = await launch(url.toString());
if (!launched) {
throw 'Could not launch $url';
}
} catch (e) {
throw 'Error launching URL: $e';
}
Ensure that you have the url_launcher package added to your pubspec.yaml file:
dependencies:
url_launcher: ^6.2.2
url_launcher doesn’t always open drive links externally, because android/iOS need proper intent and visibility configuration.
Android
