Should I use Firebase Auth?

Absolutely yes ! Firebase is a robust solution, and it’s compatible with a good bunch of OAuth providers! It’s also easy to integrate with your actual backend. Increasingly people also use it instead of their own backend, if all the essential logic is anyway in the mobile application.

Authentication identifies users requesting access to your data and provides that information as a variable you can leverage in your rules. The auth variable contains the following information: uid : A unique user ID, assigned to the requesting user.
