I know there are a ton of questions like these but I’m brand new to Flutter and I haven’t found a post that suits my needs or maybe I’m just thinking about it wrong.
When developing with Flutter you might have seen that almost every screen requires to pass data from one screen to another and might also need to receive data back from another screen.
home.dart
import 'package:flutter/cupertino.dart';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'applicationbar.dart';
import 'navigationdrawer.dart';
import 'bluetooth.dart';
class Home extends StatefulWidget {
@override
_HomeState createState() => _HomeState();
}
class _HomeState extends State<Home> {
String _string = '0m'; //so if _isFeetChecked is true in settings.dart this is '0ft'
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
backgroundColor: Colors.grey[900],
appBar: ApplicationBar(title: 'Luggage Follower'),
drawer: NavigationDrawer(),
body:Column(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
children: <Widget>[
Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.symmetric(vertical: 10,horizontal: 0),
child: Text('good Status', style: Theme.of(context).textTheme.body2),
),
Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.symmetric(vertical: 10,horizontal: 0),
child: Text('Paired', style: Theme.of(context).textTheme.body1),
),
Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.symmetric(vertical: 20,horizontal: 0),
child: Divider(height: 3.0, color: Colors.pinkAccent, indent: 150, endIndent: 150),
),
Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.symmetric(vertical: 10,horizontal: 0),
child: Text('Distance to Luggage', style: Theme.of(context).textTheme.body2),
),
Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.symmetric(vertical: 10,horizontal: 0),
child: Text(_string, style: Theme.of(context).textTheme.body1), //dynamic text here
),
Padding(

child: LuggageFollow(),

],
),
);
}
}

Declare a Function in setting.dart file and Create Function with it’s implementation in Home.dart file and pass to the setting.dart constructor. and call function from setting.dart page on your requirement to take pass data back.
you can follow flutter doc, that might help you a lot.
I suggest you use
go_router
recommended by flutter teamAnd refer: Flutter: go_router how to pass multiple parameters to other screen?
So, if you want to access data from one class to another then you just need to pass the variable in class constructor and you can use that in another class.
For example:
You can use like this and in another class you just need to pass variable.
