This issue tracks the problems that have been observed with mDNS lookup for iOS.

If your mDNS issue does not fall into one of those four categories then please comment here with detailed information about your setup including:

  • macOS version
  • iOS version
  • xcode version
  • whether HotSpot is enabled or disabled
  • whether the macOS firewall is enabled or disabled
  • whether you have clicked the dialog to allow dart to accept connections
  • any information about your networking setup that seems relevant

Thanks!

    For additional context, from analytics we're seeing iOS mDNS lookup fail, and then the fallback to the log reader fail for about 6% of attempts.

    To help users figure out what is going on here, it might be best to start with a simple FAQ of the known cases such as:

    • Public Wifi
    • Hotspot
    • Permission Dialog

    Then catch the mDNS errors and add this link to the tool exit. FYI @sfshaza2

    Another data point: The google3 issues are caused by the dart_darwin binary not being signed.

    for #47184, I don't have personal hotspot on, I didn't turn on firewall, so its weird. Let me know if you need any other infomation

    @gitgeekaus Are you on Catalina? Go to System Preferences > Network > iPhone USB > uncheck "Disable unless needed" > Apply. This was the problem for me.

    If iPhone USB isn't there, you might need to turn on hotspot in order to get it to appear in order to uncheck that setting. The setting applies with or without hotspot on, and when it is on it will cause mDNS lookup failure.

    #54781 was done in 1.23.0-7.0.pre which is available on the beta channel.

    Would love to get feedback if that's helped with this issue.

    deactivate the connection by iphone by going to system preferences, then in network and in the iphone usb option, click on it then check the option "deactivate by default".

    Let's close it, we can track in individual issues.

    If are you experiencing issues with the Flutter command line tool connecting with your app, please file a new issue and completely fill out the template, including anything about your environment that you suspect may be contributing to networking issues.
    Thank you!
