Flutter AdMob will not launch - flutter

Question

Trying to incorporate adMob into a flutter app and I am having this issue:
Launching lib/main.dart on sdk gphone64 arm64 in debug mode...
lib/main.dart:1

ANd it will not launch into the emulator to test.
I have minSDK set to 21 in my gradle file.
Update:
I tried installing the apk on my real phone and not in an emulator and it also did not work.
