It has a very long road to travel regarding OS APIs and the Android team evaded the question at Google IO about what was their opinion regarding Flutter.

Additionally, according to the Chrome team, also at IO, the way to do iOS and Android development is via PWAs, not Flutter.

This is just Google playing with their teams.
