Is Firebase Analytics SDK is required for Admob (Unity)?

[Boson]

Hello,

I see lots of crashes and ANRs reported on Play Console. The crash rate dramatically reduces when I disable AdMob.

Anyway, the log below shows one of the mostly seen issue.

I wonder if Firebase Analytics SDK integration is required for AdMob to be set properly?

Are these Firebase libs required for AdMob? (Or which of them are required?)

com.google.firebase.firebase-analytics-xx.xx

com.google.firebase.firebase-analytics-imp-xx.xx

com.google.firebase.firebase-core-xx.xx

Thanks in advance.

Hi Boson, 

You may integrate our SDK directly or through the Firebase. This said, the stack trace shared is a known issue and our team has resolved this. The fix should be available in the future releases of the SDK. Please keep an eye on our release history page for more updates.

Thanks,

Good evening,

We are having a similar issue in our application and all our traces point to the same issue and versioning.

Our crash rate is increasing at an alarming rate and would like to hot fix this ourselves if possible.

Would it be possible to highlight what the changes were or to which versions this issue occurred so we may try to revert back?

Thank you
