Integrate Firebase SMS into Android Application #4

Now that we have regained ownership of our Firebase project associated with the mobile apps, it is my understanding that the most critically important task, and perhaps the last task, to place the mobile apps back into full operational order, is to reinstate use of Firebase's SMS verification. This Firebase feature is used in our YodoPay mobile App - to both Register a new user AND just as importantly to return e-Receipts to account user phones. It is via these e-Receipts returned to the user's phone following each transaction with the cloud server, that the mobile app maintains the user account balance.

The essence of the matter is that we will be required to recruit a "crack" Android coder to be successful. I know Luis' strong recommended was that our lead mobile coder use Android Studio as our primary development tool. There are somethings that simply require Android Studio expertise to effectively accomplish however I believe a secondary too might be Kotlin. Kotlin has a less steep learning curve and apparently is more fun to use. Important to Ayodo is that Kotlin can apparently be used effectively to generate iOS ( our Apple mobile App) and is therefore a project I am hopeful most members of Hightech U could have at least some familiarity with. This is especially true if we are unable to recruit or source a good Swift coder for the Apple iPhone app.
