3. Go to Project settings in your Firebase project and copy the Web API Key, Project ID, and App ID.

4. Paste the Project ID, App ID, and Web API Key in your project in Sketchware, in the Firebase settings.

5. In main.xml add two EditText edittext1 and edittext2, and two Buttons button1 and button2 as shown in the image below.

6. On the MainActivity page add an Intent i. Also add a FirebaseAuth component fa.

7. Create a new page success.xml with a Button button1.

8. In onCreate event of MainActivity, if user is logged in move to SuccessActivity. Use blocks as shown in image below.

9. Create two more blocks, sendVerificationCode and verifyCode.

10. Create three String variables phone, codeSent, and code.

11. In more block sendVerificationCode, use blocks as shown below.

The codes used are:
com.google.firebase.auth.PhoneAuthProvider.getInstance().verifyPhoneNumber(phone, 60, java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit.SECONDS, this, mCallbacks);
}

com.google.firebase.auth.PhoneAuthProvider.OnVerificationStateChangedCallbacks mCallbacks = new com.google.firebase.auth.PhoneAuthProvider.OnVerificationStateChangedCallbacks() {
@Override
public void onVerificationCompleted(com.google.firebase.auth.PhoneAuthCredential phoneAuthCredential) {
showMessage("Verification completed");
}
@Override
public void onVerificationFailed(com.google.firebase.FirebaseException e) {
showMessage(e.toString());
}
@Override
public void onCodeSent(String s, com.google.firebase.auth.PhoneAuthProvider.ForceResendingToken forceResendingToken) {
super.onCodeSent(s, forceResendingToken);
codeSent = s;
}
};

{

12. In more block verifyCode, use blocks and codes as shown in the image below.

The codes used are:
com.google.firebase.auth.PhoneAuthCredential credential = com.google.firebase.auth.PhoneAuthProvider.getCredential(codeSent, code);
signInWithPhoneAuthCredential(credential);
}
private void signInWithPhoneAuthCredential(com.google.firebase.auth.PhoneAuthCredential credential) {
fa.signInWithCredential(credential) .addOnCompleteListener(this, _fa_sign_in_listener);
