note

The Google login feature will now work for both Android and iOS devices. You can now publish the app or release an updated version of the app in the Apple app store and Google Play Store. The app will now work properly with the Google login feature on iOS devices. However, for Android, there is an additional step that needs to be implemented after the app is published in Google Play Store.

Additional step after you release the app to Google Play Store​

After you release the app to Google Play Store, you need to add the SHA-1 key of the Google Play Store to the Firebase console. This is required to make the Google login feature work on Android devices.

  1. Publish the app in Google Play Store
  2. Once the app is published, go to your Google Play Console
  3. Click Release management and select App signing, the App signing page appears
  4. Go to App signing certificate and copy the text after SHA1 from the SHA-1 certificate fingerprint
note

Do not include the text SHA1 while copying
