2026-08-03 Fix Crash on unlock after Android restart

Addresses Issue #517 -

• Removed a background component that was redundant and caused crashes on some Android 12+ devices after reboot

Technical details

On Android 12+ with Direct Boot enabled, flutter_boot_receiver's BootHandlerService.onCreate() calls getSharedPreferences("com.flux.flutter_boot_receiver", 0) to retrieve callback dispatcher and handle values needed to spawn a background Dart isolate. On Android 12+, when an app targets API 33+ and has directBootAware="true", the application context uses credential-encrypted SharedPreferences by default. These are only accessible after the user unlocks their device for the first time post-boot, but the boot receiver runs before unlock, causing a crash.

It turns out flutter_boot_receiver provided no unique functionality: its entire job (handleBoot() → updateAlarms() + updateTimers()) is already performed by the main app startup flow in main.dart, which runs identically after every reboot when the user opens the app.

flutter_boot_receiver was popular in earlier Flutter versions when V2 embedding wasn't the default and background isolates couldn't access plugins automatically. It handled registering plugins in a background isolate before running user code. With V2 embedding (auto-registers plugins via reflection), any package spawning a background isolate like android_alarm_manager_plus gets plugin access for free, making flutter_boot_receiver redundant.
