Current behavior

The app works perfectly on devices with iOS 17 and 18 but with previous versions, for example 16.2, it shows a blank screen as soon as it starts. In the XCode console I see the following error when starting the application:

[ FirebaseAuthentication ] <CapacitorFirebaseAuthentication.RuntimeError: 0x60000298b8e0>

I need to have support for at least iOS version 16 and this is blocking me from developing and publishing the app.

Expected behavior

That the application starts without problems on iOS versions >=16.

I've just tested it and I cannot reproduce your issue. It works fine for me on iOS 16. Feel free to debug it yourself and create a PR.

I need a minimum, reproducible example as described here.

If it's related to Next.js, then it's probably not an issue with this plugin but with your implementation. We can only provide support for the plugin since our time is limited. That's why we need this minimal, reproducible example.

I'm not able to reproduce it with the demo app. That's my problem. Feel free to debug it and create a PR.

Hey, for me I can reproduce always on React when running vite server, and make capacitor live reload from server url in the capacitor config
