Hi all,

I have created a very basic anonymous authentication sign in where user enters their phone, they get a code, they are then signed in using firebase.auth().signInWithCustomToken. 
I can then console.log the current user so I know I am signed in and I can see the 'Signed In' column in firebase shows today's date. 

I then call firebase.auth().signOut().then(console.log("Logged out")) so I know I have logged out. However in firebase console it still says 'Signed In'.

Will this always remain?

Thanks

Bassam

Hey S D,
You are misreading the users section in the Firebase Console which shows all existing users in a project regardless of current sign-in status. The "Signed In" column refers to the date the user last signed in. We do not track sign out events.
You could build your own mechanism using Firebase Database or Firestore.

Best regards,
Bassam
