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:

  1. What typically falls under “other” for Android-only apps?

  2. Can WebView traffic get categorized as “other”?

  3. Could emulator/debug traffic inflate this?

Would really appreciate if someone has faced this before — especially with hybrid screens or trading/chart apps.

Thanks 🙏
