Solution

You should install the same flutter version your friend use. I think yours version is greater. Ask your friend to send you flutter doctor output and make your flutter version the same.

FVM might be a suitable tool for this (install a needed version without deleting your own): https://fvm.app/docs/getting_started/installation

Then simply run:

fvm install [version of your friend]
fvm use [version]
