Hey folks,
I’m seeing something odd in Firebase Analytics and wanted to sanity check with others.
My app is Android-only (no iOS, no web app), but in the Realtime dashboard I’m getting:
- Mobile: ~52%
- Tablet: ~4%
- Other: ~44% 👈 this seems way too high
From what I understand, “other” usually means unclassified devices, but ~44% feels suspicious.
Some context:
- Native Android app (not a PWA)
- I do use some WebView components (charts)
- I test occasionally on emulator + real devices
- Firebase Analytics SDK is integrated normally
Questions:
What typically falls under “other” for Android-only apps?
Can WebView traffic get categorized as “other”?
Could emulator/debug traffic inflate this?
Would really appreciate if someone has faced this before — especially with hybrid screens or trading/chart apps.
Thanks 🙏
