Firebase Push Notifications NPE

See original GitHub issue

I’m getting 100s of NPEs from sending push notifications. My suspicion is that it has something to do with the image push notifications that Firebase now supports. These crashes don’t seem to be user facing which is good. Unfortunately, Google counts crashes in app store rankings so I’m scared about the amount of crashes I’m getting.

Here’s the crash logs:

java.lang.NullPointerException:

This error occurs on a range of devices.

I’m sending the notifications from the Firebase console and using the latest Firebase Messaging SDK v19.0.1
