  • Can you elaborate what you mean by “google home apps”. Also could you provide additional information for the following questions 
    • Is it a mobile app working on the phone for users to control the devices ?
    • Is it a backend device used for handling smart home requests ?
  • Flutter does support writing platform specific code. I believe "platform" channels is what's allows this.
  • "A platform channel is a flexible messaging API between a Flutter app and the platform hosting the app. It's how you can communicate with native and 3rd-party APIs."
