This updates the Flutter minimum iOS version from 12.0 to 13.0, adds a migrator for existing apps, and updates our own examples, tests, and benchmark apps to 13.0. A follow-up patch will drop iOS 13 `@available` checks in the embedder. This is required in order to use Swift in the embedder and not need to bundle the Swift runtime libs in every app that uses Flutter. Swift stable ABI As of March 2025, usage of iOS is well below 1%, see example public usage data here: https://telemetrydeck.com/survey/apple/iOS/majorSystemVersions/ This patch makes the following changes: 1. Updates ios_deployment_target from 12.0 to 13.0. 2. Changes templates to `IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET`, `MinimumOSVersion`, and Podfile `platform :ios` to 12.0. 3. Adds migrator for Podfile part to migrate `platform :ios, '11.0'` -> `platform :ios, '12.0'` 4. Compiles with `-miphoneos-version-min=12.0` 5. Runs the migrator on all example apps and integration tests. 6. Updates examples, tests to iOS 13 deployment target It also updates `verify_exported.dart`: * iOS 13 introduces stricter separation of const and non-const global symbols. Previously, these were declared in the Mach-O `__DATA` section which may be mapped read-write, but now they're in a dedicated `__DATA_CONST` section which is mapped read-only. This adds `(__DATA_CONST,__const)` to the allowlist with the same enforcement on exported symbol naming as before.

Flutter Examples
This directory contains several examples of using Flutter. To run an example,
use flutter run inside that example's directory. See the getting started
guide to install the flutter tool.
For additional samples, see the
flutter/samples repo.
Available examples include:
-
Hello, world The hello world app is a minimal Flutter app that shows the text "Hello, world!"
-
Flutter gallery The flutter gallery app no longer lives in this repo. Please see the gallery repo.
-
Layers The layers vignettes show how to use the various layers in the Flutter framework. For details, see the layers README.
-
Platform Channel The platform channel app demonstrates how to connect a Flutter app to platform-specific APIs. For documentation, see https://flutter.dev/to/platform-channels/.
-
Platform Channel Swift The platform channel swift app is the same as platform channel but the iOS version is in Swift and there is no Android version.
Notes
Note on Gradle wrapper files in .gitignore:
Gradle wrapper files should normally be checked into source control. The example projects don't do that to avoid having several copies of the wrapper binary in the Flutter repo. Instead, the Gradle wrapper is injected by Flutter tooling, and the wrapper files are .gitignore'd to avoid making the Flutter repository dirty as a side effect of running the examples.
