Flutter - iOS emulator not loading assets - ios

Question

Image assets unable to load when using iOS simulator. This error always happen when running flutter run command, but after I re-run using hot restart (shift+r) all image assets load successfully. If I stop the program and re-run using flutter run command again, it's still showing the same error. This is only happen when running in iOS.
Currently i'm using stable channel.
Flutter 1.7.8+hotfix.3 • channel stable • https://github.com/flutter/flutter.git
Framework • revision b712a172f9 (9 days ago) • 2019-07-09 13:14:38 -0700
Engine • revision 54ad777fd2
Tools • Dart 2.4.0
I've already tried using master channel still not working, return back to stable channel again still not working either. Before running flutter run command I also running flutter clean but it's not changing anything.
This is my pubspec.yaml looks like.
flutter:
uses-material-design: true
assets:
- assets/images/
this is what i get in the console.

Answer 1

After many times dirty my flutter project by trying many things to solve the load assets issues, I decided to test it with new flutter project with --androidx flag on creation. I'm not really sure if it will affect anything in iOS but my project become error in iOS after I migrate my old project to androidx and publish it to playstore.
After creating the new project I copy my old pubspec.yaml, assets folder and lib folder, and it's works!
