Flutter CocoaPods could not find compatible versions for pod "FirebaseCore"

Question

I am trying to build an IOS flutter project but it is keep complaining about the compatible versions for pod. I have already tried many threads since last two days but not able to resolve the issue. However my Android version is working fine.

I tried to delete podfile.lock, podfile, pod folder, Runner.xcworkspace also but nothing works. Now I am not having the podfile.lock file anymore. I mean the podfile.lock is not getting created.

I am on macOS Big Sur version 11.6.

MacBook Pro 2019

Processor: 2.3 GHz 8-Core intel Core i9

in my Podfile:

       platform :ios, '10.0'

I also tried the following commands:

   sudo arch -x86_64 gem install ffi

   arch -x86_64 pod install

When I run the pod install command I am getting the following error.

I tried this thread too, but did not work for me...

Any help will be appreciated...

Solution

Please Try this steps :

if you have intel chip

1. flutter clean
2. update all dependencies to the latest version in pubspec.yml file and do 'get pub'
3. Go to your Podfile and uncomment #platform :ios, '9.0' Then change the version to 10 platform :ios, '10.0'
4. go to ios folder throuh terminal and do 'pod repo update'
5. 'pod update' or 'pod install'

if you have M1 chip

1. flutter clean
2. update all dependencies to the latest version in pubspec.yml file and do 'get pub'
3. Go to your Podfile and uncomment #platform :ios, '9.0' Then change the version to 10 platform :ios, '10.0'
4. go to ios folder throuh terminal and do 'arch -x86_64 pod repo update'
5. 'arch -x86_64 pod update' or 'arch -x86_64 pod install'

I just identified that my Macbook Pro is running on Intel chip. I tried the first option but it is still giving the same error when I run 'por update' or 'pod install'. My pubspec.yaml has version: 1.0.0+1 and sdk: ">=2.7.0 < 3.0.0"

@Sam I'm not talking about pubspec.yaml version. I'm talking about all the libraries version like firebase_core, google_ml_kit etc. Please Update latest version and do the steps.

Thanks Tushar for your reply. Actually when I do "dart pub outdated" it shows me what is the upgradable version for my app (not the latest). I am on the upgradable version itself but yes not on the latest version.

Thanks, after updating all my dependencies to the latest the problem is gone... thanks
