# MoveSdkAndroidConfig

When running an Android application in background, several limits apply, which also have impact on retrieving locations. To circumvent this, an application needs to show a foreground service with a notification visible to the user. \
\
Therefore, it is necessary to pass an additional notification configuration object for Android. For more information on that please check[ notification management](/move-platform/sdk/appendix/android/notification-management.md).

Here is how *moveSdkAndroidConfig* could look like:

```javascript
import { NotificationConfig, MoveSdkAndroidConfig } from 'react-native-move-sdk';

const tripChannel = {
	id: 'CT',
	name: 'Trips',
	description: 'Trips Description',
};

const recognitionNotification: NotificationConfig = {
	title: 'MOVE SDK Trip Recognition',
	text: 'SDK trip recognition is running',
	channel: tripChannel,
};

const tripNotification: NotificationConfig = {
	title: 'MOVE SDK Trip Running',
	text: 'SDK is recording your trip',
	channel: tripChannel,
};

const moveSdkAndroidConfig: MoveSdkAndroidConfig = {
	notifications: {
		recognitionNotification,
		tripNotification,
	},
};
```

[**recognitionNotification**](https://docs.movesdk.com/move-platform/sdk/api-interface/android-1/builder#dolphinsdk.builderv1.1-recognitionnotificationrecognitionnotifications) config object - whenever the MOVE SDK tries to detect for example activities, trips or even more.

[**tripNotification**](https://docs.movesdk.com/move-platform/sdk/api-interface/android-1/builder#trip-notifications) config object - when there is an active trip ([MoveTripState ](/move-platform/sdk/models/movetripstate.md)`.Running`).
