AngularFire updating only once

Why is AngularFire updating the database just once ?

I'm getting the user as this:

var firebaseURL = "https://..";

angularFire(new Firebase(firebaseURL), $scope, "database").then(function() {
    $scope.user = $scope.database.users[0];
});

And in the view:

<input ng-model="user.name" />

When I'm changing the input, it only updates once then never does.

Also, if I change something by using the firebase ui, the model does not update.

Since you are using the angularFire function in a promise context, the continuation (the then clause) is run only once and for the initial data. From the docs:

Data from Firebase is loaded asynchronously, you can use the promise to be notified when initial data from the server has loaded.

I suspect you want something of this kind:

angularFire(new Firebase(firebaseURL), $scope, "database");
$scope.$watch("database[0]", function (newVal) {
    $scope.user = newVal;
});
