Flutter Firebase Database loads indefinitely on IOS

I have a flutter app where I use Firebase Auth and Firebase Database.

The app works fine on my android phone. I am able to authenticate and add data to the database.

The issue is on Iphone. The firebase auth works fine because I am able to authenticate and get the UserCredentials, but pushing to firebase loads indefinitely until timeout.

P.S This only happens on the IOS simulator. On a real iphone device, it works

I have already done all the firebase part because I used flutterfire. So it already generates the files for you. I even added the GoogleService-Info.plist manually in xcode project.

Also, when i created my project, i have enabled auth and database first before generating the files with flutterfire. So i already have the updated google-services files with the database url in it.

Below is my code:

main.dart

void main() async {
  // Ensure the widgets are initialized
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();

  // Load firebase
  await Firebase.initializeApp(
    options: DefaultFirebaseOptions.currentPlatform,
  );

  // Initialize the shared preferences
  final prefs = await SharedPreferences.getInstance();

  // Intialize the app settings
  final repository = AppSettingsImpl(prefs);

  // Run the main app
  runApp(
    ProviderScope(
      overrides: [
        settingsRepositoryProvider.overrideWithValue(repository),
      ],
      child: const MyApp(),
    ),
  );
}

user_repo.dart

class GUserImpl implements UserRepository {
  final FirebaseDatabase _database = FirebaseDatabase.instance;
  final String _usersPath = 'users';

  GlamUserImpl();

  DatabaseReference get _usersRef => _database.ref(_usersPath);

  @override
  Future<void> createUser(GUser user) async {
    try {
      await _usersRef.child(user.id).set(user.toJson());
    } catch (e) {
      print(e);
      throw ErrorDescription('Failed to create user');
    }
  }
}

provider.dart

print("Pushing to firebase");

      // Push this user to the database
      await GUserImpl()
          .createUser(gUser)
          .timeout(const Duration(minutes: 1));

In my provider.dart, it displays the "pushing to firebase" message and then loads indefinitely.

IS there a way to see what's blocking it ? I don't have much experience with xcode and ios, just flutter and android.
