 Phone auth requires app verification, and the automatic app verification process uses data-only firebase cloud messages to the app. Data-only cloud messaging only works on real devices where the app has background refresh enabled.

   - Build processes are costly and complex, so caching is used a lot. As a result, certain changes that you make in your app can cause cache conflicts in subsequent builds. Deal with this via `npx react-native-clean-project`. This does solve a lot of problems.
