ios - App crashing when using Firebase Auth, reason: 'Default app has already been configured.'

Question

I'm building my first iOS application, and I am using Firebase to handle authentication, database, etc. I added a sign up screen and used the following code to create a new user:

FIRAuth.auth()?.createUserWithEmail(emailAddress.text!, password: password.text!, completion: { (user, error) in

        })

When the user taps on the sign up button, there is a segue that should take them back to the original login view controller. However, when I got to run the app, it hangs on the launch screen. Here is the debugger output:

I can provide additional information as needed, any help/advice would be greatly appreciated as I am just starting out and looking to learn as much as possible. Have a great day!
