Can react-native-firebase report demographic data (age/gender)?

I want track gender and age in Firebase analytics for my react native app users if possible.

Firebase docs specify that some data is automatically collected by Firebase analytics. Automatically collected user properties

This link includes this blurb:

Where Analytics gets demographics and interests data Analytics collects demographics and interests data from the following sources:

The Android Advertising ID. Applies to app activity only. Analytics generates an identifier based on the ID that includes demographic and interest information associated with users’ app activity. The iOS Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA). Applies to app activity only. Analytics generates an identifier based on the IDFA that includes demographic and interest information associated with users’ app activity.

When the Device Advertising ID is not present, Analytics cannot collect demographics and interests information. Consequently, demographics and interests data may only be available for a subset of your users, and may not represent the overall composition of your traffic.

My question is there a way to link this up with react-native-firebase? The only reference to "gender" I found in the codebase is a "setGender" function under the admob lib, but nothing in the docs mentions age, gender, or demographics.

This tracking is set up automatically in the same way it would be using the standard iOS or Android SDK.

Behind the scenes, react-native-firebase is using these same iOS and Android SDKs so anything that happens automatically as part of them, will happen automatically with react-native-firebase.
