What's New In FlutterFlow | August 10th, 2023

New Features For You ✨

This week we launched 10 new features to help you build more customized and polished applications.

Splash Screen Upgrades 📱

Splash screens help welcome new users and offer a polished look as your app loads. We've added some new features for more advanced Splash Screen customization:

  • You can now set the minimum duration for your Splash Screen to be visible.

  • You can now configure the background color shown before your Splash Screen loads.

  • You can now disable Splash Screens from being visible on web.

With these enhancements, you have the power to create a more engaging and personalized experience for your users.


Hero Animations For Components 🦸

Hero animations are a special effect that makes the transition from one screen to another look smooth and seamless. We now support Hero Animations for components, allowing you to creating more engaging and cohesive transitions.



TabBar Upgrades 🗂️

TabBars help organize you content in different sections, allowing users to quickly switch between content shown. We're excited to announce that our TabBar just got some big upgrades:

  • TabBars now support widget state.

  • We've added a new change tab action (Control Tab Bar)

  • You can now define an unselected font style.



Enhanced Design Options 🎨

Small design details can make a big difference in user experience. We've added three new features to help you further customize and elevate your application, (go to theme settings > design system): 

  • AutoSize Text Upgrade: You can now set minimum and maximum font sizes for AutoSize text.

  • Set a Color for Scroll Bars: You can now set a custom scroll bar color that aligns with your brand colors.

  • Set a Status Bar Color in Web Apps: You can now define a custom status bar color for Wen Apps, adding a polished touch to your application.



Read Document From Reference Action 📚

We've added a new action to read a document from a reference. This allows you to load a document to get specific of information, like a user's profile or a product's detail, just when you need it.

This feature can enhance the performance and the overall user experience of your application.
