Below are the steps:-

  1. Get OTP based on Phone Number:-

    void sendOTP(String phoneNumber, PhoneCodeSent codeSent,
      PhoneVerificationFailed verificationFailed) {
    if (!phoneNumber.contains('+')) phoneNumber = '+91' + phoneNumber;
    _firebaseAuth.verifyPhoneNumber(
        phoneNumber: phoneNumber,
        timeout: Duration(seconds: 30),
        verificationCompleted: null,
        verificationFailed: verificationFailed,
        codeSent: codeSent,
        codeAutoRetrievalTimeout: null);   }

  2. Use the codeSent function to retrieve verification_id and pass it to OTP screen

    void codeSent(String verificationId, [int forceResendingToken]) {
Navigator.push(
    context,
    MaterialPageRoute(
        builder: (context) => Otp(
              phoneNumber: _phoneNumber,
              verificationId: verificationId,
            )));
}

  3. Get user based on verification_id and OTP

    Future<bool> verifyOTP(String verificationId, String otp) async {
AuthCredential credential = PhoneAuthProvider.getCredential(
  verificationId: verificationId,
  smsCode: otp,
);
AuthResult result;
try {
  result = await _firebaseAuth.signInWithCredential(credential);
} catch (e) {
  // throw e;
  return false;
}
print(result);
(await result.user.getIdToken()).claims.forEach((k, v) {
  print('k= $k and v= $v');
});
if (result.user.uid != null) return true;
return false;
}

Well Documented Working Demo project here

Below is the detailed procedure

Steps

  1. Ask for user's phoneNumber
  2. Get OTP from Firebase
  3. SignIn to Firebase

Rules

  • SignIn/Login is done in the same way.
  • The OTP is only used to get AuthCrendential object
  • AuthCredential object is the only thing that is used to signIn the user. It is obtained either from verificationCompleted callback function in verifyPhoneNumber or from the PhoneAuthProvider.

(Don't worry if it's confusing, keep reading, you'll get it)

Workflow

  1. User gives the phoneNumber
  2. Firebase sends OTP
  3. SignIn the user
    • If the SIM card with the phoneNumber is not in the device that is currently running the app,
      • We have to first ask the OTP and get AuthCredential object
      • Next we can use that AuthCredential to signIn This method works even if the phoneNumber is in the device
    • Else if user provided SIM phoneNumber is in the device running the app,
      • We can signIn without the OTP.
      • because the verificationCompleted callback from submitPhoneNumber function gives the AuthCredential object which is needed to signIn the user
      • But in the previous case, it ain't called because the SIM is not in the phone.

Functions

  • SubmitPhoneNumber
Future<void> _submitPhoneNumber() async {
    /// NOTE: Either append your phone number country code or add in the code itself
    /// Since I'm in India we use "+91 " as prefix `phoneNumber`
    String phoneNumber = "+91 " + _phoneNumberController.text.toString().trim();
    print(phoneNumber);

    /// The below functions are the callbacks, separated so as to make code more readable
    void verificationCompleted(AuthCredential phoneAuthCredential) {
      print('verificationCompleted');
      ...
      this._phoneAuthCredential = phoneAuthCredential;
      print(phoneAuthCredential);
    }

    void verificationFailed(AuthException error) {
      ...
      print(error);
    }

    void codeSent(String verificationId, [int code]) {
      ...
      print('codeSent');
    }

    void codeAutoRetrievalTimeout(String verificationId) {
      ...
      print('codeAutoRetrievalTimeout');
    }

    await FirebaseAuth.instance.verifyPhoneNumber(
      /// Make sure to prefix with your country code
      phoneNumber: phoneNumber,

      /// `seconds` didn't work. The underlying implementation code only reads in `milliseconds`
      timeout: Duration(milliseconds: 10000),

      /// If the SIM (with phoneNumber) is in the current device this function is called.
      /// This function gives `AuthCredential`. Moreover `login` function can be called from this callback
      verificationCompleted: verificationCompleted,

      /// Called when the verification is failed
      verificationFailed: verificationFailed,

      /// This is called after the OTP is sent. Gives a `verificationId` and `code`
      codeSent: codeSent,

      /// After automatic code retrival `tmeout` this function is called
      codeAutoRetrievalTimeout: codeAutoRetrievalTimeout,
    ); // All the callbacks are above
  }
  • SubmitOTP
void _submitOTP() {
    /// get the `smsCode` from the user
    String smsCode = _otpController.text.toString().trim();

    /// when used different phoneNumber other than the current (running) device
    /// we need to use OTP to get `phoneAuthCredential` which is inturn used to signIn/login
    this._phoneAuthCredential = PhoneAuthProvider.getCredential(
        verificationId: this._verificationId, smsCode: smsCode);

    _login();
  }
  • SignIn/LogIn
Future<void> _login() async {
    /// This method is used to login the user
    /// `AuthCredential`(`_phoneAuthCredential`) is needed for the signIn method
    /// After the signIn method from `AuthResult` we can get `FirebaserUser`(`_firebaseUser`)
    try {
      await FirebaseAuth.instance
          .signInWithCredential(this._phoneAuthCredential)
          .then((AuthResult authRes) {
        _firebaseUser = authRes.user;
        print(_firebaseUser.toString());
      });
      ...
    } catch (e) {
      ...
      print(e.toString());
    }
  }
  • Logout
  Future<void> _logout() async {
    /// Method to Logout the `FirebaseUser` (`_firebaseUser`)
    try {
      // signout code
      await FirebaseAuth.instance.signOut();
      _firebaseUser = null;
      ...
    } catch (e) {
      ...
      print(e.toString());
    }
  }

Currently _signInPhoneNumber is deprecated, so use this:

try {
    AuthCredentialauthCredential = PhoneAuthProvider.getCredential(verificationId: verificationId, verificationsCode: smsCode);

    await _firebaseAuth
      .signInWithCredential(authCredential)
      .then((FirebaseUser user) async {
         final FirebaseUser currentUser = await _firebaseAuth.currentUser();
         assert(user.uid == currentUser.uid);
         print('signed in with phone number successful: user -> $user');
    }
}

Use the flutter_otp package to send SMS with OTP easily. The advantages are:

  1. You can send custom OTP messages.
  2. OTP can be generated in any range.

Example of using it :

 import 'package:flutter_otp/flutter_otp.dart';

 ...

 FlutterOtp myOtpObj = FlutterOtp();
 myOtpObj.sendOtp('7975235555');

 ...

 // you can check as follows
 bool correctOrNot = myOtpObj.resultChecker(<OTP entered by user>);

Check out the flutter_otp repository here

I have implemented the phone auth singnIn with firebase in flutter its quite easy just import the firebase_auth library and validate the phone number is in proper format i.e it has a "+" sign in the beginning followed by country code then the phone number then the code goes like this

if (phoneExp.hasMatch(phon))
   {
      final PhoneVerificationCompleted verificationCompleted=(FirebaseUser user){
        setState(() {
                      _message=Future<String>.value("auto sign in succedded $user");
                      debugPrint("Sign up succedded");
                      _pref.setString("phonkey",user.phoneNumber.toString());
                      MyNavigator.goToDetail(context);
//called when the otp is variefied automatically
                    });
      };
  final PhoneVerificationFailed verificationFailed=(AuthException authException){
    setState(() {
                  _message=Future<String>.value("verification failed code: ${authException.code}. Message: ${authException.message}");
                });
  };

  final PhoneCodeSent codeSent=(String verificationId,[int forceResendingToken]) async {
    this.verificationId=verificationId;


  };

  final PhoneCodeAutoRetrievalTimeout codeAutoRetrievalTimeout = (String verificationId){
    this.verificationId=verificationId;

  };

  await _auth.verifyPhoneNumber(
    phoneNumber: phon,
    timeout: Duration(seconds: 60),
    verificationCompleted: verificationCompleted,
    verificationFailed: verificationFailed,
    codeSent: codeSent,
    codeAutoRetrievalTimeout: codeAutoRetrievalTimeout
    );



}

and if the phone wasn't able to detect the otp sent automatically, get the otp in a string and implement this function

void _signInWithOtp() async{
  final FirebaseUser user = await _auth.signInWithPhoneNumber(
  verificationId: verificationId,
  smsCode: _otpController.text,
);

I had the same issue but I was building an Ionic app.

you can do firebase phone auth on the web. the idea is:

  • take the user's phone number and send to a webpage.

  • create a recaptchaVerifier

    var recaptchaVerifier = new firebase.auth.RecaptchaVerifier('recaptcha-container');

  • sign in the user with phone number:

    firebase.auth().signInWithPhoneNumber(phoneNumber, recaptchaVerifier)
        .then(confirmationResult => {
            myVerificationId = confirmationResult.verificationId;
        })
        .catch(error => {
            console.log('error', error);
        })

  • send the confirmation id back to the flutter app through a deeplink

  • Firebase will send the sms code.

  • sign in the user with any method that takes the confirmation Id and the code as parameters. for the web it goes like this:

      let signinCredintial = firebase.auth.PhoneAuthProvider.credential(this.verificationId, this.code);
  firebase.auth().signInWithCredential(signinCredintial)
   .then(response => {
     // user is signed in

})
