@Slake07 can you see if you get the same crash if you add a !! in your startAfter?

query = firebaseFirestore.collection(DBConstant.PHOTO.tableNm)
        .orderBy(orderBy)
        .startAfter(lastVisible!!) // <---
        .limit(6)

@Slake07 since there has been no comment in ~1.5 months I am going to close this issue and assume it is fixed for you.
