the
Frameworks, Libraries, and Embedded Content Build Setting on the General tab.
Firebase 6.31.1

pod/framework should no longer be linked along with Firebase. (#5824)

- [changed] Functionally neutral refactor to simplify FirebaseCore's header usage and replace
Interop pods with headers only. This change is the reason most of the Firebase pods have a minor
version update and why there may not be another specific release note.

FirebaseApps bundleID verification, allowing exact bundleID matches
for extensions. (#5126)

now includes an Info.plist. (#4917)
[changed] The arm64e slice is no longer included the zip

officially supported by Apple.

- Instance ID
The Firebase Installations SDK introduces the Firebase Installations API. Developers that use API-restrictions for their API-Keys may experience blocked requests (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/58495985/). A solution is available here. (#4533)
v6.5.0 -- M61
[added] Updated the binary distributions to include arm64e slices. See
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/security/preparing_your_app_to_work_with_pointer_authentication.

distributions. All libraries now support building for arm64e except the MLKit
ones who's support is TBD. (#4110)

full name of each Firebase pod name in the directory structure. For example, the former
Storage directory is now FirebaseStorage.

be used to support product decisions related to Swift, e.g. adding a Swift specific

open source.
