You could have a look at Request Pin Widget function (pub.dev/packages/home_widget#request-pin-widget).
I have not tried this yet, and this is very dependent on the device the user is using. So I wouldn't rely on this fully.

I can't see widget when I use app>new>
I can't see many of the options
Normally I don't use android studio for flutter or anything
What do u Suggest I do

If you're in the Flutter Project window, it won't display many of the Android-only functions. You'll need to open the android module as a separate window to have the option to add the App Widget
