CodePudding user response：

If you want to check if the user is new in Firebase, then you can use my answer from the following post:

• How to check if user is new using GoogleSignInOptions in android studio using java?

If you don't want to use Firebase authentication, but I highly recommend you implement it, then you can add the user object in Firestore or in the Realtime Database.

Since you're using Java, for checking a user for existence in Firestore, please check the following answer:

• Firestore query - checking if username already exists

And for checking a user for existence in the Realtime Database, then please check the following answer:

• Checking if a particular value exists in the Firebase database

So when a user creates a new account, first check if the UID already exists in the database. If it doesn't, then the user is new, otherwise is an existing user.
