`android/app/google-services.json` is required when Firebase is enabled. It does not decide the switch: a missing file fails the build, and a file on disk is ignored when Firebase is explicitly disabled.
- **Default (local, test, production, Play Store)**: `./gradlew assembleRelease` or `./gradlew bundleRelease` — do not pass `-PfirebaseEnabled`.
- **Opt out (F-Droid / FOSS)**: `./gradlew assembleRelease -PfirebaseEnabled=false`. npm scripts honor `FIREBASE_ENABLED=false`, which forwards that property.
- **Opt out (F-Droid / FOSS)**: `./gradlew assembleRelease -PfirebaseEnabled=false`, or an npm `:nostore` script such as `npm run build:android:test:nostore:run`. Those set `FIREBASE_ENABLED=false`, which forwards `-PfirebaseEnabled=false`. `:nostore` disables Firebase only; it does not remove every Play Services dependency.
iOS builds bundle `ios/App/App/GoogleService-Info.plist` by default (`ios/App/scripts/bundle-firebase-config.sh`, run from `scripts/build-ios.sh` and as an Xcode build phase). Opt out with `FIREBASE_ENABLED=false` (the build script forwards that to xcodebuild) or the Xcode build setting `FIREBASE_ENABLED=NO`. A missing plist fails an enabled build; the file's presence does not enable Firebase on its own.
iOS builds bundle `ios/App/App/GoogleService-Info.plist` by default (`ios/App/scripts/bundle-firebase-config.sh`, run from `scripts/build-ios.sh` and as an Xcode build phase). Opt out with `FIREBASE_ENABLED=false` (the build script forwards that to both the build and archive `xcodebuild` invocations), `npm run build:ios:prod:nostore`, or the Xcode build setting `FIREBASE_ENABLED=NO`. A missing plist fails an enabled build; the file's presence does not enable Firebase on its own.
The guard is in `android/app/build.gradle`. Do NOT activate Firebase from file presence alone — that was the bug that broke FOSS distribution in June 2026.

Firebase is on by default (`firebaseEnabled=true` in `android/gradle.properties`). Do not pass `-PfirebaseEnabled` for a normal release. F-Droid and other builds that must omit Firebase use `-PfirebaseEnabled=false`, or an npm `:nostore` script (`FIREBASE_ENABLED=false`). `:nostore` only disables Firebase. It does not remove other store-linked dependencies, such as the ML Kit barcode scanner's Play Services library, and it does not by itself make the app run on every device outside the Play Store.

When Firebase is on, `android/app/google-services.json` must exist, be non-empty, and contain `mobilesdk_app_id`. Otherwise configuration fails with an error that names that path. When Firebase is off, the file is ignored even if it is on disk.

`scripts/build-android.sh` forwards an opt-out: `FIREBASE_ENABLED=false` adds `-PfirebaseEnabled=false` to its Gradle commands. Default npm scripts leave Firebase on. A `:nostore` script sets `FIREBASE_ENABLED=false` and reuses that script (`npm run build:android:test:nostore:run`).
iOS uses the same default. `ios/App/scripts/bundle-firebase-config.sh` copies `ios/App/App/GoogleService-Info.plist` into the app and the share extension. `scripts/build-ios.sh` runs it with `--check` before a device build, and both Xcode targets run it as a build phase. `FIREBASE_ENABLED=false` skips the plist.

`:nostore` disables Firebase only. It does not strip other store-linked dependencies (the ML Kit barcode scanner still pulls in Play Services) and does not guarantee the build will run on every device outside the Play Store.
