Break up with Firebase before it breaks you: Practical migration guide

By Dubi Furie·May 7, 2025·5 min read

Firebase Dynamic Links (FDL) will be discontinued on August 25, 2025, necessitating migration to alternatives such as App Links, Universal Links, or third-party deep-linking providers.
The migration process involves assessing current FDL usage across user flows, defining requirements for cross-platform support, analytics, and volume.
Key steps include selecting an alternative (third-party provider, custom solution, or mobile measurement partner), configuring deep linking, mapping FDL links to the new system, implementing redirects, updating app code, and conducting extensive testing.
A phased approach is recommended to minimize risk, and the migration presents an opportunity to optimize user flows and enhance app performance.
