Answer 1

I'm pretty sure that's because you have:

ext.enableCrashlytics = false

In your application build.gradle file.

Answer 2

You can disable Crashlytics for debug builds when initializing:

    // Set up Crashlytics, disabled for debug builds
    Crashlytics crashlyticsKit = new Crashlytics.Builder()
            .core(new CrashlyticsCore.Builder().disabled(BuildConfig.DEBUG).build())
            .build();

    // Initialize Fabric with the debug-disabled crashlytics.
    Fabric.with(this, crashlyticsKit);
