[shared_preference] Support 16KB Memory Page Size for Flutter Shared Preferences #194699
Description
Use case
The AndroidX DataStore library has supported 16KB memory page sizes since version 1.2.1. Therefore, it is necessary to review and update the underlying dependencies or implementation of Flutter shared_preferences to ensure compatibility with this requirement.
Proposal
Since AndroidX DataStore 1.2.1 supports 16KB memory page sizes, updating the relevant dependencies or implementation in Flutter shared_preferences should be evaluated to provide equivalent compatibility where applicable.

@camle83it Thanks for the proposal. #182744 tracked the 16 KB page-size warning from
libdatastore_shared_counter.sointroduced through the DataStore dependency used byshared_preferences_android. That regression was addressed by reverting the dependency.This looks like a follow-up to evaluate whether DataStore 1.2.1 can be used safely. The linked release notes don't explicitly confirm 16 KB page-size support, so this still needs verification. I'll label and route the issue to the Android team for evaluation.
Related: #182744, #182898.

@saurabh-mirajkar Thanks for your replies.
You could create an Android project using DataStore versions 1.2.0 and 1.2.1, then analyze the resulting APKs to verify this.
I have tested it myself and confirmed that DataStore supports 16KB page sizes at version 1.2.1.
However, I would still encourage you to verify this for yourself.
