Hi,

Due to the frequent server requests, it is cheaper for us to use the firebase realtime database.

If the app is terminated, the plugin @transistorsoft/capacitor-background-geolocation still continues to send the location to the server. With this plugin @transistorsoft/capacitor-background-geolocation-firebase, it is also possible to use this feature with the firebase realtime database or only firestore.

Firebase Realtime Database vs Firestore

Stackoverflow: What's the difference between Cloud Firestore and the Firebase Realtime Database?

christocracy commented 2 years ago

"Future plans of Google

When they discovered the flaws with Real-time Database, they created another product rather than improving the old one. Even though there are no reliable details revealing their current standings on Real-time Database, it is the time to start thinking that it is likely to be abandoned."
