### Android

Include the maven repository to your gradle build script, where the MOVE SDK package is located.

## Permissions

{% hint style="danger" %}
**System Permissions**

Based on the passed [MoveConfigs](/move-platform/move-sdk-1.x/sdk/models/moveauth.md) on[`initialization`](/move-platform/move-sdk-1.x/sdk/api-interface/ios/intialization.md), the SDK determines the required permissions to activate the requested services. If all permissions are granted when the SDK is initialised, it will transit to the [MoveSDKState](/move-platform/move-sdk-1.x/sdk/models/movedevicestatus.md) "`ready`".\
\
The host app **must** verify that all the permissions required for the passed configs are granted. In case the required permissions were missing when calling the SDK [initialization](/move-platform/move-sdk-1.x/sdk/api-interface/ios/intialization.md) API, the [MoveSDKState](/move-platform/move-sdk-1.x/sdk/models/movedevicestatus.md) will transit to [MoveSDKState](/move-platform/move-sdk-1.x/sdk/models/movedevicestatus.md) "`permissionMissingerror`".

Check [iOS permission handling](/move-platform/move-sdk-1.x/sdk/appendix/ios/permission-handling.md) and[ Android permission handling](/move-platform/move-sdk-1.x/sdk/appendix/android/permission-handling.md) for details about permissions and background modes required for each service.
