Arno,
How do you know it doesn't use Firebase ? (how did you figure that out
?)

Because I checked the code: <https://github.com/Helium314/HeliBoard>
Ah, yep, that would do it.
Alas, thats not something thats easy to automate.
But do I understand you correctly that if an app uses Firebase it doesn't
need the INTERNET permission (and/or alike) to be able "go online" ?

No, but it needs to contain code to use Firebase.
??? I don't get that. Somehow you look to be disagreeing and agreeing with
me at the same time.
Simpler question: If an app uses Firebase it can go online, even though the
app doesn't request the INTERNET permission. Yes, or no ?
If "yes", any idea how it does that ? (curiosity speaking there)
If you don't believe me,
Its not at all about me not believing you, its about my worry that a random
app can go online without my say-so.
In fact, its me believing you and wondering how I can spot an app which uses
that kind of circumvention of (denied) permissions.
