Hi @MRtootisabz, I'm unable to reproduce this issue. Could you share a complete minimal repo reproducing this issue?

[MRtootisabz]

@SelaseKay Just create a flutter empty project and add cloud_firestore then pod install.

[SelaseKay]

Hi @MRtootisabz, I'm still unable to reproduce this issue with an new Flutter Project. Kindly upgrade your Xcode and try again.

[JherysVargas]

I had the same error and I solved it by changing the following value in the Podfile platform: ios, '13.0'
