    targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
}

Add the following dependency to use the ForgeRock Authenticator module in your Android applications:

dependencies {
    ...
    implementation 'org.forgerock:forgerock-authenticator:4.4.0'
}

Push notifications

Request notification permissions

To process push notifications successfully on Android 13 (API level 33) and later, the app must request the new Notification runtime permission for sending non-exempt notifications from an app.

Declare the permission

To request the new notification permission from your app, update your app to target Android 13 (API level 33) and declare POST_NOTIFICATIONS in your app’s manifest file, as in the following code snippet:

<manifest ...>
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.POST_NOTIFICATIONS"/>
    <application ...>
        ...
    </application>
</manifest>

iOS

Install the module using CocoaPods

CocoaPods is a dependency manager for iOS projects, and is a simple way to integrate the ForgeRock Authenticator module into your application.

If you do not already have CocoaPods, install the latest version.
In a terminal window, run the following command to create a new Podfile:
```

```
Add the following lines to your Podfile:
```
pod 'FRAuthenticator'
