Updated: Jan 16, 2026

This guide explains how to include the Audience Network SDK in your Android app so that you can call Audience Network APIs. The preferred method is to
use Maven to manage the dependencies; however, download locations for manual integration
are also provided below. Be sure to keep your app up to date with the latest Audience Network SDK version for stability and continued format improvements. Automatic SDK updates are not yet available.

Maven (preferred download method)
In Android Studio, make sure that
mavenCentral() is included in your
project’s list of repositories. Repositories are defined in your project’s module-level build.gradle file.repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
Next, add the following implementation dependencies to your project’s list of dependencies. Dependencies are also
defined in your project’s module-level build.gradle file. Note that annotation support is required by the Audience
Network SDK.
dependencies {
implementation 'androidx.annotation:annotation:1.0.0'
implementation 'com.facebook.android:audience-network-sdk:6.+'
}
The SDK uses the AndroidX Browser library (
androidx.browser:browser:1.9.0) to open click destinations in Chrome
Custom Tabs. When you integrate with Maven, this dependency is pulled in automatically as a transitive dependency, so
no action is required.Manual download
If using Maven is not an option, you can download the Audience Network SDK from one of the locations in the
following table.
If you integrate by downloading the AAR manually, you must also add the AndroidX Browser dependency yourself, otherwise
Chrome Custom Tabs will not work:
implementation 'androidx.browser:browser:1.9.0'
