The document provides 6 tips for optimizing Flutter apps: 1) Use Google Fonts plugin to dynamically download fonts as needed; 2) Use network images instead of storing in assets to reduce app size; 3) Use Icon classes from MaterialIcons or CupertinoIcons and remove unused icons; 4) Use Proguard and minify code to remove unused plugins, assets, and code; 5) Cache frequently used images like profiles to improve load times; 6) Build APKs split by ABI to optimize for specific device architectures.

App optimization is necessary to
maintain the app quality
and performance after launch
Apps that are not optimized properly run into trouble
like spontaneous freezing, draining battery and
blocking up memory space..
Here are a few tips on how you can optimize flutter apps

Use
Google Fonts
google_fonts plugin will dynamically download font when it is
used and it will download it in a specific style and language, so
that you don’t need to ship all of the variation with your project.

Use
network images
While including image assets use network images and link them
instead of using the /assets folder as this will increase app size.
It is also a standard best practice to compress .png and .jpg
images if they are used,

Use
Icon Classes
It is recommended to use from Material Icons or Cupertino Icons
class. From Flutter 1.17, you can add --tree-shake-icons option
to flutter build command, to remove all of the unused icons from
the bundle.

Use Proguard
& Minify Code
Remove Unused plugins, assets and of cource code by using open
source command-line tool like proguard that shrinks and
optimizes your code. Minify can be included in your project for
on-the-fly compression.

pictures using cached_network_image plugin
