I realize this may be a duplicate of #142, #715 or #206 but those are closed and meant to be fixed.
We have been using the plugin for quite a while and never actually encountered this before. It’s only occurring in plugin version 1.1.0 for us. We have downgraded to version 1.0.5 again and now everything works again. So, I thought I’d open a new issue for this as there may be some regression error. Happy to provide more info if there are questions…

@CWollinger thanks! adding window.FirebasePlugin.initFirebase() worked for me too. i am using version 1.1.2
Adding window.FirebasePlugin.initFirebase(); before getToken worked for me.
On iOS I was getting the error “Firebase isn’t initialised” when calling the getToken method. I also managed to get things working by downgrading to v1.0.5 (which my Android version was already running and was working fine with, as far as I could tell).
Thanks @BrainOverflown , I’ll follow your thread!
I already did @Drintios
@BrainOverflown @rubytann I am using iOS so Android would look slightly different, but here is my getToken() function that is working 100% on emulator and device. The code is in a provider that is called on the ionViewDidEnter() lifestyle hook on the root page.
async getToken() { (<any>window).FirebasePlugin.initFirebase() let token; if (this.platform.is('ios')) { token = await this.fireNative.getToken(); const perm = await this.fireNative.grantPermission() } return this.saveToken(token) }@8tomo8 I have the same question. I added
(<any>window).FirebasePlugin.initFirebase()in app.components.ts, my app just froze. I’m using ionic 3 too. Could you please explain where I should use it?
