# Android

> Add the required Android dependencies and AndroidX libraries for the MoEngage Flutter SDK.

# Add dependencies

Add the following dependencies to the ***android/app/build.gradle*** file.

## Add Androidx Libraries

The SDK depends on a few Androidx libraries for its functioning, add the below Androidx libraries in your application if not done already.

<CodeGroup>
  ```groovy build.gradle theme={null}
  dependencies {
      ...
  implementation("androidx.core:core:1.6.0")
  implementation("androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.3.1")
  implementation("androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-process:2.7.0")
  }
  ```
</CodeGroup>

The MoEngage SDK depends on the **lifecycle-process** library for a few key features to work and the latest version of **lifecycle-process** depends on the **androidx.startup:startup-runtime** library. Hence do not remove the **InitializationProvider** component from the manifest. When adding other Initializers using the **startup-runtime**, ensure the Initializer for the **lifecycle-process** library is also added. Refer to the [documentation](https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/lifecycle#2.4.0) to know how to add the Initializer.
