I just saw that the limit for the number of apps for a Firebase project is 30.  
I was planning on offering white labeling of my app per customer and would need to create 3 apps for each customer (web, ios and android).
This means I can only have 10 customers on my platform with their own branded versions of the app, unless I create multiple projects which would be a nightmare to maintain.

Is there any way around this or other possible solutions?  
It seems like quite a low number.

I don't necessarily need to treat the apps like unique apps e.g. I can live with messaging and analytics being the same setting for all the apps.
But the apps would be uniquely separate apps in the app stores under different app store accounts.

Hi there,

As you noticed this is a new limitation. We can increase this for your project beyond 30 but there will always be a limit:
https://firebase.google.com/support/faq#apps-per-project

Maintaining multiple projects is the ideal situation, although I understand this can also be painful. If you don't mind sharing more, can you explain which parts of managing multiple projects you find most difficult?

I should also mention that there are limits on the number of projects you can create in Google Cloud and these limits are the same for Firebase projects:

The project limit applies to a billing account. So the real ultimate answer here is to have the customers of your platform be the owners of their own project. I think you'll find that this is what most service providers who integrate with GCP/Firebase do.
