Flutter teams can ship OTA fixes safely with staged rollouts and one-command rollback
Pushing a fix to every user at once is risky, since a buggy fix can worsen the problem for the whole user base. Web teams have long used canary releases and instant rollbacks, which mobile apps typically cannot do once a build is in the app store. This article describes a workflow for Flutter using over-the-air updates through the OverPush code push service, starting a patch at 10% of devices and widening the rollout over time. The dashboard tracks downloads, running devices, and failures, and operators can raise the percentage or revoke or roll back patches with simple commands. Devices whose patch crashes on startup automatically revert to the store version, even when offline.
