Research direction

Start with packages/firebase-messaging/platforms/android/include.gradle, which the issue identifies as a possible source of the AdMob dependency, and trace the dependencies used by the auth and messaging modules. Done means an app using those modules no longer triggers Google Play's AdMob SDK complaint when Firebase Ads is not requested.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Even though I don't use firebase ads, google complains about my app using admob sdk.

I use auth and messaging modules.
I understand messaging module uses analytics library and that might be the reason: https://github.com/NativeScript/firebase/blob/main/packages/firebase-messaging/platforms/android/include.gradle#L2
