Firebase Listener (on_data_change) remains dormant until an initial get() is called

Hi, I’m using the latest version (the one that doesn’t require google-services.json). I’ve noticed that my data change listeners do not trigger upon app startup, even when the data on the server changes.

The listeners only “wake up” and start firing after I manually perform a get() call on the same reference. Once a get() is executed, the on_data_change events start working perfectly.

Is this a known issue with the recent update’s initialization process? It seems like the connection isn’t fully established until an active request is made.


Hi dear,

Why do you say

Have you completed the migration?

Are you using the companion?
