The same crash is reported in our Firebase crashlytics Dashboard.

Crash Log -

Fatal Exception: io.flutter.plugins.firebase.crashlytics.FlutterError: PlatformException(ERROR_START_SMS_RETRIEVER, Can't start sms retriever, null, null)
       at StandardMethodCodec.decodeEnvelope(message_codecs.dart:652)
       at MethodChannel._invokeMethod(platform_channel.dart:310)
       at SmsAutoFill.listenForCode(sms_autofill.dart:35)

Usually, a PlatformException crash comes when the platform interaction fails.

As the crash crash begins from the below line - https://github.com/jaumard/sms_autofill/blob/master/lib/sms_autofill.dart#L35

The above code should be wrapped inside a try-catch block as it is communicating with the platform.

  try {
    await _channel.invokeMethod('listenForCode',
        <String, String>{'smsCodeRegexPattern': smsCodeRegexPattern});
  } on PlatformException catch (e) {
    // handle PlatformException here
  }

Please let us know once the fix is available.
