#### Health Services&#x20;

*Since MoveSDK 2.15*:

For iOS, using the steps service requires the addition of the MoveSDKHealth framework.

This can be configured by adding an environment variable in the Podfile.

```
ENV['DOLPHIN_MOVE_SDK_HEALTH'] = '1'
```

### Android

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

```bash
maven { 
    url "https://dolphin.jfrog.io/artifactory/move-sdk-libs-release" 
}
```

Add the dependency for the MOVE SDK Android library to your module (app-level) Gradle file (usually app/build.gradle).

You can check for latest releases here:\
<https://dolphin.jfrog.io/ui/native/move-sdk-libs-release/io/dolphin/move/move-sdk>
{% endhint %}

Use the following SDK and Kotlin versions:

```javascript
minSdkVersion = 26
kotlinVersion = '1.7.10'
compileSdkVersion = 33
targetSdkVersion = 31
```

### Expo

If you use Expo, please take a look at our [**sample app**](https://github.com/dolphin-technologies/MOVE-sample-React) created with Expo. Note that it is simplified as much as possible and its main task is to show an example of integration with the MOVE SDK. The [**plugin**](https://github.com/dolphin-technologies/MOVE-sample-React/blob/main/plugins/move/index.js) is required to integrate with the MOVE SDK when using the Expo.

Contact us for assistance if you still have questions.
