I had yesterday the same issue, I went crazy looking for a solution. For me it worked downgrading play services from 18.0.0 to 17.2.1.

It seems to be an error in that library. My error occurred when users downloaded the application and this, crash at the beginning but then it works well if you get in again.

Change logs of google:

To avoid a crash that occurs on first launch after app install from the play store, this release requires publishers to declare additional dependencies in their build.gradle:

com.google.android.gms:play-services-measurement:17.0.0
com.google.android.gms:play-services-measurement-sdk:17.0.0

user_47598230

Use together:

implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-measurement:17.0.0'
implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:18.0.0'
