HUGE thanks for this video!
Ran into some gradle problems initially but after installing every possible update to Android Studio and stuff listed in the SDK manager, I was able to get Firebase image uploading to work on my drawing app!
I also added this extra dependency:

I do want to mention though that right now there's an "error" being printed in the console about lack of authentication, which is irrelevant/incorrect considering in the video we change the storage rule to reflect access for everyone. So even though it is indeed uploading the images, the console will still print out that there is a problem. So initially I thought it was wasn't working, but to my surprise all the images files were actually present in storage! Very cool.

does the google play services version need to map up with that in mobile for example, im using 11.0.1 in my dependencies, so mobile should also have that version of play services ? do some mobiles have lower version of play services or do all have the same ?

Doug: how can I handle multiple upload. I need to send 10 images in a synchronous way (a business requirement), how to solve this if the API does not support anything like this?

Thank you. Could you make a video for phone number authentication like whatsapp for android

Could you explain how the upload image contains the overlayed text? I've added a TextView that overlays my ImageView, but doesn't save after upload.
