Android Studio Logcat error message:

hm.. I'm not able to reproduce the issue right away - have you tried a Build -> Clean Project before running again?

Oh, looks like a conflicting AndroidStudio version and FirebaseServices version issue.
AndroidStudio 4.0 has conflicts with the kotlin version and Firebase MLKit's version.
I'm running Android Studio 3.6, so didn't catch the issue.

Will push an upgrade soon for AndroidStudio 4.0
