Registry and repo links are for reference. ## What the SDK needs from you The setup steps that apply to any attribution SDK in a Android app. Each vendor datasheet lists that vendor's own requirements. - **Repository** Most artifacts are on Maven Central. Airbridge and Singular publish to their own Maven repositories, which you add to `settings.gradle`. - **Permissions** `INTERNET` and `ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE` are standard. `com.google.android.gms.permission.AD_ID` is needed to read the advertising ID when targeting Android 13 (API 33) or later; remove it for child-directed apps. - **Play Install Referrer** The main Android attribution signal for Play Store installs. Check whether the SDK pulls in `com.android.installreferrer:installreferrer` itself or asks you to add it. - **Initialise early** Start the SDK in `Application.onCreate` so the first open is captured, then send your first in-app event. - **Deep links** Add an intent filter with `android:autoVerify="true"` for App Links and host `assetlinks.json` (most MMPs host it on their link domain). Pass the intent to the SDK in `onCreate` and `onNewIntent`. - **Other stores** For Huawei, Samsung or Xiaomi stores, add the vendor's optional referrer modules where offered. ## Questions **Which MMPs have an official Android (native) SDK?** 9 of the 9 MMPs tracked here publish an official Android (native) SDK: Adjust, Airbridge, AppMetrica, AppsFlyer, Branch, Kochava, Linkrunner, Singular and Tenjin. **How do I install an MMP SDK in a Android app?** Add the artifact to your Gradle dependencies (and the vendor's Maven repository if it is not on Maven Central), then initialise the SDK in Application.onCreate. **Does an MMP need the Google Advertising ID?** Not to work, but it helps. Attribution starts from the Play Install Referrer, which carries the click's referrer string; the GAID adds a device-level match for view-through and some network postbacks. Apps targeting Android 13 or later must declare the AD_ID permission to read it. **Why are some Android SDKs not on Maven Central?** Some vendors host their own Maven repository, so you add its URL to your Gradle settings. It works the same way but is one more repository your build depends on. **What is an MMP SDK?** An MMP SDK is the library a mobile measurement partner asks you to add to your app. It records the first open, in-app events and deep link opens, and sends them to the MMP so installs can be matched to the ad or link that drove them. **Is every MMP SDK open source?** No. Many wrappers and SDKs are MIT licensed, but some native SDKs are proprietary: AppsFlyer's native iOS and Android SDKs, Kochava's SDKs and AppMetrica's Flutter plugin are published under proprietary terms. The licence column in each table shows what the registry or repository states. ## Other frameworks - [FW-RN **React Native** npm install the vendor package, then run pod install in the ios folder. Autolinking wires up the native side. *9 of 9 official*](https://mmpsdk.com/frameworks/react-native/) - [FW-FL **Flutter** flutter pub add the package, then check the iOS deployment target in the Podfile and minSdk in android/app/build.gradle. *8 of 9 official*](https://mmpsdk.com/frameworks/flutter/) - [FW-EX **Expo** npx expo install the package, add its config plugin to app.json, then npx expo prebuild and run a development build. Expo Go cannot load these native SDKs. *6 of 9 official*](https://mmpsdk.com/frameworks/expo/) - [FW-UN **Unity** Add the package by Git URL in Unity Package Manager or import the .unitypackage, then resolve native dependencies (often with EDM4U) before building for iOS and Android. *8 of 9 official*](https://mmpsdk.com/frameworks/unity/) - [FW-CP **Capacitor** npm install the plugin, then npx cap sync to copy it into the iOS and Android projects. *4 of 9 official*](https://mmpsdk.com/frameworks/capacitor/) - [FW-CD **Cordova** cordova plugin add the package, then rebuild both platforms. *7 of 9 official*](https://mmpsdk.com/frameworks/cordova/) - [FW-IOS **iOS (native)** Add the Swift package in Xcode or the pod to your Podfile, then initialise the SDK early in the app's launch. *9 of 9 official*](https://mmpsdk.com/frameworks/ios/) - [FW-WEB **Web** Add the vendor's script tag or npm package to the site, then initialise it with your app or project key. *7 of 9 official*](https://mmpsdk.com/frameworks/web/)
