api - Why can't a Flutter application connect to the Internet when installing "app-release.apk"? But it works normally in debug mode

Question

In debug mode, everything looks good. I get answers and data lists from my API. But after creating app-release.apk and installing it on my phone, there isn't an Internet connection any more.

Here is my code:

ScopedModelDescendant<ReportPosViewModel>(
  builder: (context, child, model) {
    return FutureBuilder<List<Invoice>>(
      future: model.invoices,
      builder: (_,
        AsyncSnapshot<List<Invoice>> snapshot) {
          switch (snapshot.connectionState) {
            case ConnectionState.none:
            case ConnectionState.active:
            case ConnectionState.waiting:
              return Center(
                child:
                  const CircularProgressIndicator());
            case ConnectionState.done:
              if (snapshot.hasData) {
                // Something todo
              }
              else if (snapshot.hasError) {
                return NoInternetConnection(
                  action: () async {
                    await model.setInvoice();
                    await getData();
                  },
                );
              }
          }
      },
    );
  },
),

Open the AndroidManifest.xml file located at ./android/app/src/main and add the following line:

<manifest xmlns:android="...">
  <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/> <!-- Add this -->
</manifast>

From here:

Add the android.permission.INTERNET permission if your application code needs Internet access. The standard template does not include this tag but allows Internet access during development to enable communication between Flutter tools and a running app.
