Check out Flutter Dropdown Banner to easily alert users of events and prompt action without having to manage the complexity of presenting  delaying  and dismissing the component  To set it up  import  packages dropdown banner dropdown banner dart       class MainApp extends StatelessWidget            override   Widget build BuildContext context        final navigatorKey   GlobalKey lt NavigatorState gt                 return MaterialApp                      home  DropdownBanner            child  Scaffold                 navigatorKey  navigatorKey                           To use it  import  packages dropdown banner dropdown banner dart       class SomeClass           void doSomethingThenFail         DropdownBanner showBanner        text   Failed to complete network request         color  Colors red        textStyle  TextStyle color  Colors white                 Click here to see an example

I used similar approach  but I wanted to    Keep the Dialog code as a widget in a separated file so I can reuse it  Blurr the background when the dialog is shown       Code  1  alertDialog widget dart  import  dart ui   import  package flutter material dart     class BlurryDialog extends StatelessWidget      String title    String content    VoidCallback continueCallBack     BlurryDialog this title  this content  this continueCallBack     TextStyle textStyle   TextStyle  color  Colors black       override   Widget build BuildContext context        return BackdropFilter        filter  ImageFilter blur sigmaX  6  sigmaY  6         child   AlertDialog        title  new Text title style  textStyle          content  new Text content  style  textStyle          actions   lt Widget gt           new FlatButton            child  new Text  Continue               onPressed                   continueCallBack                                    new FlatButton            child  Text  Cancel              onPressed                   Navigator of context  pop                                                       You can call this in main  or wherever you want  by creating a new method like     showDialog BuildContext context       VoidCallback continueCallBack        gt     Navigator of context  pop           code on continue comes here         BlurryDialog  alert   BlurryDialog  Abort   Are you sure you want to abort this operation   continueCallBack       showDialog      context  context      builder   BuildContext context          return alert
