Given how big zinga is, it'#s a good bet that feature loses less players than it keeps. Otherwise they wouldn't do it.
I'm just trying to get firebase working now for events but it takes ages to update the online stats.

UPDATE: Got firebase custom events working! This is awesome, now I'll know what level my players get to, what control methods they use, whether they check the achivements, the high scores, options, everything! This is brilliant! I'm reading a book called "Free-to-play" right now (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Free-Play-...ds=free+to+play&qid=1580939215&s=books&sr=1-2) , which is why I'm so into this, I think I can increase my income a lot by following the advice it gives.

this sounds really interesting. i use firebase only for admob but getting all that data may be helpful to know where you can improve your app.

same here, I don't even go through the trouble anymore to add my app and generate the json file anymore.

knowing that 54% of my players is female is nice but not usefull at all compared to all the work you need to do for it.
I know you can get a lot of data out of it but is it usefull for small devs like us?

I prefer looking at my admob stats which is what counts at the end ;)
