Hello

It's been more than a year that sanctions have been lifted from Iran but for some reasons google won't let Iranian use firebase !!! 
Is there any way for people in Iran to use firebase ? I mean like the situation with parse that when it shot down, some other companies started providing parse back-end. 
if there is some other ways that I can connect my app to firebase please let me know.

Ahmad,

Unfortunately it's not a simple issue. Self-hosting or hosting on an non-US based infrastructure provider is likely your best bet.

Google's Transparency Policy also discusses potential blocking issues external to Google (e.g. per country restrictions).

Thanks,
--Mike
