iOS Flutter Application Won't Launch; 'fatal error: 'camera/CameraPlugin.h' file not found'?

My Flutter application built on both an Android and iOS device prior. However since implementing the camera plugin, the application will no longer build on the iOS device.

So far I have tried:

  • Commenting out the use_frameworks! in the Podfile and tried both pod update and pod clean.
  • And adding the permissions into the iOS Info.plist file.

The code I'm running is just a default flutter application with a tab that contains the example code from https://pub.dartlang.org/packages/camera.

As you can see, it launches fine on my Android phone. However trying to run it on iOS does not work. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Solution

  • I had the same issue. I fixed by running pod install within my project's /ios directory
