flutter: Release mode is different in everything from debug mode, even icons aren't showing

application looks different in release mode; it doesn't have any icons and widgets seem to grow bigger, fonts are different

commands used: flutter build apk --build-name=1.0 --build-number=1

flutter run --release

I was trying to test release apk but it was totally different.

Solution

  • I solved the problem after 3 months of searching. It turned out that the font I used messed with the icons. Not sure how or why but the font I added in pubspec from Google fonts named Cairo was buggy. I recommend not using it.

    Once I removed it everything came back to normal again!
