Why do users get Android License Status Unknown in Flutter?

Generally, this kind of issue occurs when the user updated the android SDK, the licenses may have changed.

Depending on how the user did the update you may or may not have been prompted to accept the changes, or maybe it just doesn’t save the fact that you did accept them in a way flutter can understand.

Users can give a try to below things in a command prompt.

flutter doctor --android-licenses

This should prompt users to accept licenses it may ask you, user, in case just type y and press enter – although it should tell you that.

Flutter:

flutter doctor --android-licenses

SDK manager:

sdkmanager --licenses

and type Y when needed to accept the licenses.

The right solution would be if you have android studio installed then

• Open SDK manager
• Under SDK tools uncheck hide obsolete packages at the bottom
• Then you should see an option called Android SDK Tools

  

• Check it and apply and let the studio download the package.
• Once did run the command flutter doctor and it should now prompt you to run flutter doctor –android-licenses once you run the license command accept all licenses by hitting y and it should solve the problem.

STEP 1:

ANDROID LICENSES –android-licenses, will resolve most cases.

It means your java is not installed or not the correct version. move to the next step.
