Firebase Crash produces ANR during launch

Question

Recently I got feedback and also I was able to reproduce it easily on my Nexus 5 with cleared app data. Simply, when adding compile \'com.google.firebase:firebase-crash:

Answer 1

9.6.83 still gives a different anr crash Our app when pushed to Play Store Beta and when installed on devices crashes the first time on launch. Subsequently it works , but we cannot push to prod without understanding the issue.

Here is the ANR crash report

java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to instantiate receiver com.google.android.gms.analytics.CampaignTrackingReceiver: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Didn't find class "com.google.android.gms.analytics.CampaignTrackingReceiver"

Edit : We had to add compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-analytics:9.4.0' explicitly and the launch anr for first time got resolved. But I am not sure that was the fix as we dont use the library at all. Maybe Playstore fixed their bug to all apks?
