How to generate the app SHA1 and SHA56

You need to configure firebase phone auth for phone otp verification to work, without this you would running into errors building the app.

To solve this error, you need to add both your keystore SHA1 and SHA56 as well as debug SHA1 and SHA256 to fireabse console.

That means two SHA1 and two SHA256

For debug keys use https://developers.google.com/android/guides/client-auth?authuser=1 to get the key, use ./gradlew signingReport or .\gradlew signingReport if in windows to get debug keys.

For release keys use Keystore explorer to see the SHA1 and SHA256.

If the issue persists after changing your SHA1 and SHA256 make sure the following:

1. Change the google-services.json file again.

2. Delete the app in settings and add a new one with the right SHA1
