 ## Enabling the database features
-*Only* if you choose to use **Firestore** (instead of the default DB) these features won't be available. 
+Before plugin version 5.0.0 this was enabled by default, but since 5.0.0 we're also supporting Firestore.
+
+If your saved config file `firebase.nativescript.json` (in the root of your project) doesn't include `"realtimedb"` we'll assume `true` for backward compatibility.
+You can disable it by editing that file and setting `"realtimedb": false`. Then run `rm -rf platforms && rm -rf node_modules && npm i`.

 ## Enabling Firestore
-During plugin installation you'll be prompted to use either Firestore or the default DB.
+During plugin installation you'll be asked whether or not you use Firestore.
 
 In case you're upgrading and you have the `firebase.nativescript.json` file in your project root, edit it and add: `"firestore": true`.
