In flutter, for how long does an anonymous login persist?

Question

I'm wondering specifically what kind of events (other than signing out and possibly disabling an account) that would end the lifetime of an anonymous sign-in.

Does it work the same was as with react native, as this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/46143694 ?

You don't need to set persistence. Firebase handles it for you by default. You just need to call this function to check whether user is logged or not:

firebase.auth().onAuthStateChanged((user) => { if (user) { console.log('user is logged'); } } This will not be triggered only if user has sign out or cleaned app data.

Can I rely on the anonymous sign-in to persist unless the user signs out, is disabled, or the app is uninstalled?

Yes, you can rely on the anonymous account to persist in those cases. It would not be useful otherwise.
