Android Studio not showing Logcat with Flutter
AndroidAndroid StudioFlutterLogcatAndroid Problem Overview
I'm using Android Studio for Flutter App Development. Everything seems to be working fine just that the Android Studio does not show the "logs" in Logcat. In the Logcat section, it says "Please Configure Android SDK". Which is already configured. And in the Logcat section says "No Connected Devices." in the drop-down menu. When it has recognized my Android Phone and is showing it just under the Menu bar.
Is there a fix for it? Is there something I am missing?

Solution 1 - Android
Try the following:
- click Configure
The Logcat
tab should appear now. Moreover, the Device File Explorer
tab should show up on the right panel.
Solution 2 - Android
I just solved this, the flutter project was missing an Android module. Go to 'File -> Project Structure -> Modules'. Click on the '+' sign at the top to add a module. Select Android.

Update April 2020: Cuong's answer works better with Android Studio 3.6+
Previous answer:
Flutter use Run tab to display logs in Android Studio. Switch from Logcat to Run and then you will see logs.
Solution 4 - Android
Go to Setting/Preferences -> Languages & Framework -> Flutter -> Check or uncheck Replace the Run and Debug console with an experimental Flutter Loggin view
Solution 5 - Android
Just open another NATIVE project for Android Studio in other window and the logcat will work, do it while Flutter project is open. That was the solution for me
Solution 6 - Android
Find a way around it (macOS).
Go to Project Structure -> Facets -> "+" -> Android -> Select Project Logcat should now be visible. Configure Android SDK if not done previously and you should be able to use Logcat.

When I first came to Flutter from an Android background, I didn't know where to find the log statements. I didn't care so much about all of the system messages. I just wanted to see log messages from my app during development. This answer is for people like that, not for people who specifically need LogCat itself.
In Flutter apps you can log text using the print()
statement.
print('hello');
As others have said, you can use the Run tab in Android Studio to view these logged comments.
Here is the code for main.dart:
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
void main() {
runApp(MaterialApp(
home: Center(
child: RaisedButton(
child: Text('Button'),
onPressed: () {
print('hello'); // <-- logging
},
),
),
));
}
Solution 8 - Android
Open Project Stucture -> Modules -> new android module from exists source.
Logcat & Device File Explorer will be visible.
for Android Studio 3.6: File -> New -> New Module -> Android Library

I had this issue:
I have done the following steps to resolved it:
Solution 10 - Android
I guess it's an ADB issue. You can restart AS (or maybe even your Computer) or what i usually do is open the terminal an then: adb kill-server && adb start-server
(I think the second part adb start-server
is not necessary because it seems that AS handles it automatically) - anyways this is how LogCat and Android (and Flutter) work for me every time.
Solution 11 - Android
Go to Menu and select 'Project Structure' -> 'Project' 1.
In 'Project Structure' Select Project SDK 2.
And just now click on OK and Apply.
Solution 12 - Android
Just use command 'flutter logs', then you can see all logs which are printed by 'print' or 'debugPrint' function.
Solution 13 - Android
When i face this problem I just go to File
and open my existing native android project
and then close it. This solution also works when abd Wifi pludings
does show warning like => adb not found.
Solution 14 - Android
Run
adb logcat
and watch from terminal. Doc: https://developer.android.com/studio/command-line/logcat
Solution 15 - Android
when you open flutter project, IDE prompts you to configure android project. Just click on the recommendation and it will start showing logcat window.
Solution 16 - Android
In case you accidentally refused to configure Android framework and now struggling to find the LogCat window. Then delete .idea, .dart_tool and .gradle folders in project root and android folder. Then Invalidate and restart. It will ask to configure detected Android framework. Click 'configure'.
Solution 17 - Android
Switch to the “Run” tab to see the logs and if you want to insert logs (like Log.d()
in android), you can use print()
function and whatever string you pass into it will be printed into the “Run” window.
Solution 18 - Android
I found a solution worked for me:
for MacOS: Go to: /Users/userName/Library/Preferences/AndroidStudio3.4/options Find "runner.layout.xml" Change the name of this file for ex: runner01.layout.xml Restart Android studio
for Windows: 1- Focus "Run" tab (click on tab header, not on its body) 2- Ctrl+Shift+A, find and click "Restore Layout"

Hopefully, it helps.

In my case, I also had an error in the Device File Explorer: Error initializing ADB: Android Debug Bridge no found
.
I fixed the problem following https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57291708/error-initializing-adb-debug-bridge-not-found: I selected the latest Android API Platform as Project SDK in File/Project Structure.
Solution 20 - Android
Just go to File => Project Structure => and in the “SDK project” choose “Android”
Solution 21 - Android
- close project
- delete .dart_tool,.idea,build files
- start android studio,logcat will display
Solution 22 - Android
In new versions of Android Studio, after deploying the app to device/emulator, in Run Tab you will see an option for flutter dev tools as shown in the image, it will open in browser (based on default chrome/edge) and there you can see logcat/logging
