Does Google Play Services Classpath necessary for device that has no Play Services?

Question

I am using Firebase dependencies that do not require Play Services like Firestore and already manage to run it without any problem. So I am wondering if adding classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.4' would still be necessary since the device I am targeting does not have it but removing it fails the build.

是的，如果你想使用 Firebase，这个库是必要的。
