General updates

#
  • Improved messaging when a screen is unavailable for the platform of the connected app. - #7958
  • Fixed a bug where an infinite spinner was shown upon app disconnect. - #7992
  • Fixed a bug where trying to reuse a disconnected DevTools instance would fail. - #8009

Performance updates

#
  • Removed the "Raster Stats" feature. This tool did not work for the Impeller rendering engine, and the information it gave for the SKIA rendering engine was often misleading and unactionable. Users should follow the official Flutter guidance for Performance and optimization when debugging the rendering performance of their Flutter apps. - #7981.

Network profiler updates

#
  • Fixed an issue where socket statistics were being reported as web sockets. - #8061

VS Code Sidebar updates

#
  • Added buttons for all DevTools tools in the sidebar by default, even when there are no debug sessions available. - #7947
