I'm using Firebase Authentication in my Flutter app to detect user authentication state changes and navigate accordingly. However, the navigation inside initState does not work.

./main.dart:

import 'package:app/authentication/email_auth.dart';
import 'package:app/authentication/landing.dart';
import 'package:app/authentication/signup.dart';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter/services.dart';
import 'authentication/login.dart';
import 'package:google_fonts/google_fonts.dart';

import 'package:firebase_core/firebase_core.dart';
import 'package:firebase_auth/firebase_auth.dart';
import 'firebase_options.dart';

void main() async {
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();
  await Firebase.initializeApp(
    options: DefaultFirebaseOptions.currentPlatform,
  );
  runApp(const MyApp());
}

class MyApp extends StatefulWidget {
  const MyApp({super.key});

  @override
  State<MyApp> createState() => _MyAppState();
}

class _MyAppState extends State<MyApp> {
  User? _user;

  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();
    FirebaseAuth.instance.authStateChanges().listen((user) {
      print("User state changed: ${user?.uid}");
      FocusManager.instance.primaryFocus?.unfocus();

      setState(() {
        _user = user;
      });

      if (user != null) {
        WidgetsBinding.instance.addPostFrameCallback((_) {
          Navigator.pushAndRemoveUntil(
            context,
            MaterialPageRoute(builder: (context) => HomeScreen()),
            (route) => false,
          );
        });
      }
    });
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    SystemChrome.setSystemUIOverlayStyle(SystemUiOverlayStyle(
        statusBarIconBrightness: ThemeMode.system == ThemeMode.light
            ? Brightness.dark
            : Brightness.light));
    return MaterialApp(
      // app data
      title: 'MyApp',

      // app navigation
      routes: {
        Login.routeName: (context) => const Login(),
        Signup.routeName: (context) => const Signup(),
        EmailAuth.routeName: (context) => const EmailAuth(),
        Landing.routeName: (context) => const Landing(),
        HomeScreen.routeName: (context) => HomeScreen(),
      },

      home: Landing(),

      themeMode: ThemeMode.dark,
      theme: ThemeData(scaffoldBackgroundColor: Color(0xff222531)),
      darkTheme: ThemeData(
        scaffoldBackgroundColor: Color(0xff222531),
        bottomAppBarTheme: BottomAppBarTheme(color: Colors.red),
        useMaterial3: true,
        textTheme: TextTheme(
            labelMedium: GoogleFonts.inter(
                color: Colors.white, fontWeight: FontWeight.bold, fontSize: 20),
            labelSmall: GoogleFonts.inter(
                color: Colors.white, fontWeight: FontWeight.bold, fontSize: 13),
            bodyLarge: GoogleFonts.inter(
                color: Colors.white, fontWeight: FontWeight.w500, fontSize: 24),
            headlineSmall: GoogleFonts.inter(
                color: Colors.white, fontWeight: FontWeight.w400, fontSize: 22),
            displayMedium: GoogleFonts.montserrat(
                color: Colors.white, fontWeight: FontWeight.bold, fontSize: 40),
            headlineLarge: GoogleFonts.inter(
                color: Colors.white, fontWeight: FontWeight.w400)),
      ),
    );
  }
}

class HomeScreen extends StatelessWidget {
  HomeScreen({
    super.key,
  });
  static const routeName = "/home";
  final user = FirebaseAuth.instance.currentUser;

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: GestureDetector(
        onTap: () async {
          print("pressed");
          await FirebaseAuth.instance.signOut();
        },
        child: Center(
          child: Text(
            user?.email ?? "hello",
            style: Theme.of(context).textTheme.headlineLarge,
          ),
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}

Issue:

• The authentication state change is detected (confirmed by print() logs).
• However, Navigator.pushAndRemoveUntil does not work, and the screen does not change.

How can I fix this issue and ensure the navigation happens when the user logs in?

Things I Have Tried:

• Wrapping Navigator.pushAndRemoveUntil inside WidgetsBinding.instance.addPostFrameCallback
• Checking if mounted before calling Navigator
• Adding a small delay with Future.delayed(Duration(milliseconds: 100), () {...})
• Moving navigation logic to build() instead of initState
• Ensuring MaterialPageRoute is correctly defined
• None of these solutions have worked.

I was expecting the sign-in to go ahead and the user be navigated to the homePage() page. But in reality the sign in is successful while the navigation is not!

Ok so here's how i fixed it:

i moved to contextless navigation, so i defined a GlobalKey<NavigatorState> globally in main.dart:

./main.dart:

// global navigation
final GlobalKey<NavigatorState> navigatorKey = GlobalKey<NavigatorState>();

then inside initState() (main.dart):

FirebaseAuth.instance.authStateChanges().listen((user) {
  FocusManager.instance.primaryFocus?.unfocus();

  setState(() {
    _user = user;
  });

  if (user != null) {
    navigatorKey.currentState?.pushNamed("/home");
  }
});

and in MaterialApp() (main.dart) you have to add this line:

navigatorKey: navigatorKey,

however i am yet to investigate the potential drawbacks with this approach (when i find them i will list them down below)
