🖥️ mac_settings_flutter #

mac_settings_flutter is a Flutter package that allows you to remotely control macOS system settings—such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and AirDrop—directly from your Flutter app. It works by leveraging Apple Shortcuts to trigger macOS automation from your mobile device.

💤 You can control these settings even while your Mac is in sleep mode — as long as your Mac and mobile device are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.

• ✅ Toggle AirDrop on/off from your Flutter app
• 🔐 Built using Apple Shortcuts for secure native control
• 💻 Seamless connection between your Mac and Flutter application
