Fixing Flutter Form Validation Issues: Ensuring Your Form Works

As a beginner in Flutter development, you may encounter challenges related to form validation. One prevalent issue is when the form doesn’t seem to validate the inputs as expected. This can lead to user frustration and might hinder the overall functionality of your app. In this guide, we'll address why your form validation might be failing and provide a comprehensive solution to ensure your Flutter forms are validated properly.

Understanding the Problem

You may have tried implementing validation in your Flutter form but found it wasn’t functioning as intended. This can occur for a variety of reasons, including:

Not associating TextEditingController with the input fields.

Failing to validate the form on submission.

Not utilizing autovalidate for real-time feedback as users type.

Let’s delve into how to remedy these issues step by step.

Solution Breakdown

Step 1: Assign TextEditingController

To properly validate text fields, you need to create instances of TextEditingController for each input field. This controller will help you retrieve any text input from the user. Here’s how you can set it up:

Step 2: Update Your Form Fields

Now that you have created your controllers, you should assign them to your TextFormField. Additionally, implement the autovalidate mode to allow for real-time validation feedback as the user types. Here’s an updated version of your TextFormField setup:

Step 3: Implement Form Validation on Submission

You will also need to check if the form is valid during the submission process. Modify your moveToHome function as follows:

This ensures that the navigation to the home route only occurs if the form passes validation checks.
