   * At the top of the file.
   * This is automatically imported with Android Studio, but if you are in any other editor you will need to manually import the module.
   */
   import expo.modules.firebase.app.FirebaseAppPackage; // This should be here for all Expo Firebase features.
   import expo.modules.firebase.instanceid.FirebaseInstanceIDPackage;
   
   // Later in the file...
   
   @Override
   public List<Package> expoPackages() {
     // Here you can add your own packages.
     return Arrays.<Package>asList(
       new FirebaseAppPackage(), // This should be here for all Expo Firebase features.
       new FirebaseInstanceIDPackage() // Include this.
     );
   }
