App simplemente se abre y se cierra después de ejecutar desde Android Studio en Android Studio.

También se muestra la siguiente advertencia:

El archivo gradle de la aplicación debe depender de com.google.firebase: firebase-core para que los servicios de Firebase funcionen según lo previsto.

Traté de hacer la aplicación a partir de un tutorial, la aplicación se compila correctamente pero solo se abre y se cierra cuando se ejecuta en un teléfono Android.
