Description
Problem Statement
The docs mention the ability to override feature flags through the SDK, but it’s only available for web and react native.
- Flutter (this issue)
- Android (https://github.com/PostHog/posthog-android/issues/564)
- iOS (https://github.com/PostHog/posthog-ios/issues/649)
- RN
Solution Brainstorm
It would be great to have the feature available on flutter, as it would make testing much easier if we can allow individuals to control the flags directly from the frontend.

Research direction
Start with the feature-flag testing documentation and the Flutter SDK’s existing feature-flag implementation; compare it with the documented overrideFeatureFlags behavior for web and React Native. Done means Flutter users can override feature flags directly for testing, with the behavior reflected in the SDK and documented alongside the existing methods.
