Description

We have an app that is working well with flutter_appauth for a while (iOS and Android). Recently I upgraded my Android device to Android 14 and now it seems like I can not login (using Google), I get to see the Google account selection but after selecting the account the screen redirects to itself and hangs on the loading state.

All I get in the debug are these messages:

W/AppAuth ( 586): No stored state - unable to handle response
W/iour.app.name( 586): Cleared Reference was only reachable from finalizer (only reported once)

To be clear - same code base has no issues when running in either iOS or Android 11.

Is there a know issue with Android 14?

Research direction

Start at the authorizeAndExchangeCode entry point and reproduce the Google login flow on Android 14, comparing it with Android 11 and iOS. Inspect the AppAuth warning about missing stored state and the redirect loop; done means the account selection returns successfully and the loading state completes.
