I've been using Firebase for a few things already, but now I want to add the Crashlytics and on step 3 in the guide it is said "For Android apps, a hook in the AndroidManifest.xml file automatically initializes the Firebase SDK."
Is there something I actually need to do?
The Android manifest file is a specially formatted XML file. You can edit the XML manually by clicking on the AndroidManifest. xml tab. Android manifest files generally include a single <manifest> tag with a single <application> tag.
Every app project must have an AndroidManifest. xml file (with precisely that name) at the root of the project source set. The manifest file describes essential information about your app to the Android build tools, the Android operating system, and Google Play.
Go to Build > Analyze APK... and select your apk. Then you can see the content of the AndroidManifest file.
xml file in android. The AndroidManifest. xml file contains information of your package, including components of the application such as activities, services, broadcast receivers, content providers etc.
No, the documentation is saying that the hook already exists, if you use the default integration steps for Firebase. It's a ContentProvider that gets merged into the app by the build system. This ContentProvided is loaded first thing when the app starts, and its sole purpose is to initialize the Firebase SDK.
