As seen in

sentry-dart/flutter/lib/src/renderer/io_renderer.dart

Line 4 in 212d6c7

return FlutterRenderer.skia;

Skia is hardcoded on dart:io platforms.

I guess it's probably to detect Impeller vs Skia based on the Info.plist flag on iOS. Maybe Android has something similar.

Android should have a flag in AndroidManifest.xml. Is it possible to access flags from those during runtime?

Yeah, but not from Flutter, just from the native parts. I would just remove it from the Flutter side for now (no info is better than wrong info) and then add the correct info in a later step.
