Consider blocking Firebase domains in HOSTS file, which you can do in NetGuard or Invizible Pro, which you can supply your HOSTS file. Not sure if Hagezi or such community made HOSTS rulesets carry Firebase domains in their anti-Google/BigTech part of domains. There are no client side tools on Apple to accomplish this, unlike on any Android, no matter $50 or $5000.

Warden on F-Droid does a similar but more comprehensive job for any installed app packages. App Manager shows activities, services, receivers and providers apps utilise or have in a comprehensive manner.
