Firebase for Android SDK support?

What is the minimum Android SDK version to use Firebase on Android?

I see that the AndroidDrawing example works with API Level 17, but not 11. What exactly is the limit?

To be more precise: it doesn't crash, but the application never receives any data. So for the AndroidDrawing example I am basically drawing on my own.

edit: Platform version 4.0 (API Level 14) doesn't work either.

Solution

  • Firebase dev here. If you grab the latest SDK build (v1.0.2, https://www.firebase.com/docs/downloads.html), it should work all the way back to Android 2.2, which I believe is API Level 8. If after updating it still doesn't work, please enable logging 

    Firebase.getDefaultConfig().setLogLevel(Logger.Level.DEBUG);

    and either post the output or email it to support@firebase.com
