Firebase in a Flutter iOS utility

I’ve prior to now already construct flutter apps with firebase however in the meanwhile I’m operating in some issues that stop me from even constructing something firebase-related for iOS.

The machine is operating:

• macOS Sequoia 1.54
• Flutter 3.29.2 • channel secure
• XCode Model 16.3
• iOS 18.4 Simulator

This specific construct is operating on a digital machine however I attempted the identical course of on an apple silicon.

$ flutter physician
Physician abstract (to see all particulars, run flutter physician -v):
[✓] Flutter (Channel secure, 3.29.2, on macOS 15.4 24E248 darwin-x64, locale en-US)
[!] Android toolchain - develop for Android gadgets (Android SDK model 35.0.1)
[✓] Xcode - develop for iOS and macOS (Xcode 16.3)
[✗] Chrome - develop for the online (Can not discover Chrome executable at /Functions/Google Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google Chrome)
[✓] Android Studio (model 2024.3)
[✓] Related system (2 accessible)
[✓] Community sources

I’m creating the straightforward flutter commonplace app and it’s operating with none issues:

flutter create fb_test
cd fb_test
flutter run

After including the firebase package deal as a dependency and with out altering the code:

flutter pub add firebase_core
cd ios
pod setup
cd ..
flutter run

the run fails as firebase requires iOS 13.0. According to the documentation I’m altering:

Podfile:

platform :ios, '13.0'

ios/Flutter/AppFrameworkInfo.plist:

  MinimumOSVersion
  13.0

After these adjustments I run

pod repo replace
pod set up --repo-update

and set in XCode the configuration to Pods-Runner.profile.xcconfig

Working the app once more leads to the next error messages:
