Flutter desktop - change window title from Dart code

I am unable to find any way to do that when searching official documentation. Does anybody know any way to do that?

In order to replace flutter app title on the Windows caption bar, as well as optionally adjusting the dimensions for size and the window coordinates you have to navigate to windows/main.cpp file and edit following code: !window.Create(L"My App New Title Here", origin, size) Source: https://docs.flutter.dev/platform-integration/windows/building

It is possible, as mentioned in https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/30712

In pubspec.yaml add

dependencies:
  window_size:
    git:
      url: https://github.com/google/flutter-desktop-embedding.git
      path: plugins/window_size
      ref: fd519be1e8398c6b6c2062c2447bac960a71bc02

Now in your code just call

import 'package:window_size/window_size.dart';

WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();
setWindowTitle("Custom window title");

Works fine on Linux. Haven't tested on Windows/Mac

PS Thanks to @Johan Ordenes Galleguillos for the missing WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();

Achieved this by using windowmanager package. It has a lot of features for desktop development with flutter.

After installing package just add this to main():

void main() async {
 //needed to ensure binding was initialized 
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();

  await WindowManager.instance.ensureInitialized();
  windowManager.waitUntilReadyToShow().then((_) async {
     await windowManager.setTitle('Yor title goes here');
  });

runApp(const MyApp());
}

for me worked with Windows and Linux.

Go to windows > runner > main.cpp folder, find a " !window.CreateAndShow(L"schedule_task", origin, size) " And change the "schedule_task" text

Ok, that seems to be not possible (yet), but work in progress: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/30712
