Flutter Verbose Mode Debugging Guide | Generated by AI
Ahh got it 👍 — Yes, Flutter has a verbose mode which prints everything it’s doing under the hood so you can see where it hangs.
✅ Run flutter Commands with Verbose Logging
Just add the -v (or --verbose) flag:
- For
flutter clean:flutter clean -v - For fetching dependencies:
flutter pub get -v - For running your app:
flutter run -v
This will dump detailed logs (network calls, file deletions, pod commands, etc.) to the terminal.
📌 Tips for Reading Verbose Logs
- Look at the last few lines shown before it stops responding → that tells you what step is hanging.
- Often hangs happen during:
- CocoaPods resolution (network slow / repo outdated).
- Gradle sync (on Android build).
- Permissions (if Flutter doesn’t have access to some directories).
👉 If flutter clean -v still appears stuck, paste the last ~20 lines it prints here ⬇️, and I can help analyze exactly where it’s hanging.
Do you want me to write you a shortcut cleaning script with verbosity so you can run ./super_clean.sh instead of typing every command?
