Does Firebase Analytics support geographic drill down?

I've created a Firebase account and integrated it into an app. In the Firebase Console, I can see a map of the world, and yes, there's the app running in USA(where I am).

There does not seem to be any finer geographic granularity than "country". The similar feature in Google Analytics lets you click on a country and see the data to city level. Am I missing something, or is country-level usage the finest granularity available with Firebase Analytics?

And if it can do better, how?

Note that around 2017 Q1, a new feature called "Streamview" went into beta within the Firebase console. This provides very geo-granular live tracking of usage. It does not, however, provide data over a range of time like "last 7 days" or "last 30 days". It is only instant/live. - Anders8

Currently, you can't see finer granularity in Firebase Analytics. However, finer-grained granularity (Region and City) is available in BigQuery, so if you need that level of detail, you can link your Firebase app to BigQuery and access it there.

It is already available after you creating a new view in Google Analytics with connected Firebase.

Well, depends what your using Firebase for. If you're interested in Firebase geo analytics for the web then you might want to check out https://firebase.googleblog.com/2014/06/geofire-20.html for more information.
