I too am having this issue. I've narrowed it down to only affecting Android 15 and above.

Looks like it's been a while since I updated the app.

I'm gonna see if upgrading the particulars on Android will do the trick, since it now requires upgrading that platform.

Note that I'm out of office for the next couple of days, but hopefully on Monday, I'll get to doing this.

having the same issue on ios - tested iphone 12 mini

@emran92 I recentlly released version 1.4.0, which upgrades Android to use the latest Gradle plugins, as well as upgrading pigeon to the latest version.

Please clean and rebuild, then call flutter pub upgrade so that it pulls in the latest deps.

I've updated to 1.4.0 and performed a clean and rebuild but still getting this error on an iPhone 16 Pro Max iOS 26 :(
