How to play a sound in Silent Mode? – Flutter

I’m coding an alarm app using Flutter (Android only, for now).

I managed to play the alarm using a notification. But it only works when the phone isn’t in Silent Mode.

Is there a way to build such an app using Flutter? Playing the sound no matter the state of the phone is the core functionality of the app. If this isn’t possible, I should stop the development of this app.

Already tried using a sound played by AwesomeNotifications plugin (using Alarm Type with max priority) and a sound played by FlutterRingtonePlayer (triggered by a notification).

Flutter 3.3.5 • channel stable

Physical device used to test is running Android 13

Edit: as the app is an alarm, an isolate will play the sound.

  1. 0 
    MediaPlayer mp= MediaPlayer.create(contexto, R.raw.your_sound);
mp.start();

    You should call this when you start your alarm(you should call this in native code)

    1-Add sound_mode as a dependency in your pubspec.yaml file

    dependencies:
    flutter:
    sdk: flutter
    flutter_localizations:
    sdk: flutter

    sound_mode: ^2.0.2

    2-Add the following permission to AndroidManifest.xml for the app to appear in the ‘Do Not Disturb Access’ list :

    <manifest ... >
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NOTIFICATION_POLICY"/>
    
    <application ... >
    ...
</manifest>

    To change the device’s sound mode:

    import 'package:sound_mode/utils/ringer_mode_statuses.dart';

//To get the device's current sound mode:
String ringerStatus = await SoundMode.ringerModeStatus;
print(ringerStatus);

// To change the device's sound mode: silent to normal.
if(ringerStatus == 'silent'){
   try {
      await SoundMode.setSoundMode(RingerModeStatus.normal);
     } on PlatformException {
     print('Please enable permissions required');
    }
}

// your code here : play a sound

    Once try with this because this package is providing functionality to work in silent mode also.

    assets_audio_player: ^3.0.6
