Answer 1

The feature you are asking for needs native implications. The question has already been answered in one of the forum. It can be a bit tricky to implement. Have a look at the form link below

Answer 2

There are couple of plugins out there you can check them

flutter_screen_lock

flutter_lock_screen

Answer 3

you can use this plugin device_policy_manager it helps to lock the device immediately as if the lock screen timeout has expired at the point of this call. just follow the installation steps in the readme and this how u can use it

/// Return `true` if the given administrator component is currently active (enabled) in the system.
final status = await DevicePolicyManager.isPermissionGranted();

/// request administrator permission
await DevicePolicyManager.requestPermession("Your app is requesting the Adminstration permission");

/// lock the phone
await DevicePolicyManager.lockNow();
