Download, save as, and change background image of the phone with Flutter

Question

I need help regarding the images in my app. I would like to add 3 buttons for:

• Download
• Save as
• Change phone wallpaper

I'm not using urls. I already have my images in an assets repository.

Do you have any idea how I can do that? Thank you.

You can copy paste run full code below
You can use package https://pub.dev/packages/wallpaper_manager
You can directly set wallpaper with image in assets
Example code's assets image path is "assets/tmp1.jpg"

code snippet

result = await WallpaperManager.setWallpaperFromAsset(
          assetPath, WallpaperManager.HOME_SCREEN);
