Describe the problem

Step 1 and 2 in the animated gif is outdated https://docs.flutter.dev/assets/images/docs/development/add-to-app/android-overview.gif

The animated gif is excited and compelling but doesn't actually work

Expected fix

Please update to Commandline instructions that work and/or fix the Intellij/Android Studio plugin so that it works again.

Additional context

Android Studio Chipmunk is stable. I think this animated gif new module worked several major versions ago.

Hi @neiljaywarner, I don't think the gif was meant to be instructional.

I think it was just intended to demonstrate the feature. I believe that is the reason why we have dedicated setup pages for integration with the supported platforms.

Nonetheless, if it is a person's first introduction to the topic, I could see how this would be confusing.

@danagbemava-nc thanks for response and your point. That's a good point that the gif isn't instructional - but the reference to IDE file-new module is also in the instructions . I think there's a separate ticket for that but to be honest I don't recall the status on it.
