+# LBRY Android SDK
+[![pipeline status](https://ci.lbry.tech/lbry/lbry-android-sdk/badges/master/pipeline.svg)](https://ci.lbry.tech/lbry/lbry-android/commits/master)
+[![GitHub license](https://img.shields.io/github/license/lbryio/lbry-android-sdk)](https://github.com/lbryio/lbry-android/blob/master/LICENSE)
+The LBRY SDK packaged as an Android AAR library which can be used in any Android Studio project.
## Installation
-The minimum supported Android version is 5.0 Lollipop. There are two ways to install:
-
-1. Via the Google Play Store. Anyone can join the [open beta](https://play.google.com/apps/testing/io.lbry.browser) in order to install the app from the Play Store.
-1. Direct APK install available at [http://build.lbry.io/android/latest.apk](http://build.lbry.io/android/latest.apk). You will need to enable installation from third-party sources on your device in order to install from this source.
+No installation required as this is a dev library.
## Usage
-The app can be launched by opening **LBRY Browser** from the device's app drawer or via the shortcut on the home screen if that was created upon installation.
+1. Open your project in Android Studio.
+1. File > New > New Module...
+1. Select Import .JAR / .AAR Package and click Next
+1. Select the lbrysdk--.aar package from the location you built or downloaded it to
+1. Click Finish
+
+### Using the SDK
+Add the `FOREGROUND_SERVICE` and `INTERNET` permissions to `AndroidManifest.xml` if they are not yet added.
+```
+
+
+```
+Add the `android:usesCleartextTraffic="true"` attribute to the `application` tag in `AndroidManifest.xml`.
+Import the required classes to be able to start up the service.
+```
+import io.lbry.lbrysdk.LbrynetService;
+import io.lbry.lbrysdk.ServiceHelper;
+```
+Add code to launch the service.
+```
+Context context = getApplicationContext();
+ServiceHelper.start(context, "", LbrynetService.class, "lbrynetservice");
+```
+
