The Sentiance React Native module should now be added to your \*\*\*\* project's **package.json** file.

{% code title="package.json" %}

```groovy
{
  ...,

    ...,
    "react-native-sentiance": "^4.4.8"
  }
}
```

{% endcode %}

## Update the Podfile for iOS

Add the following lines to the **Podfile** file in your project's **ios** directory:

```ruby
pod 'RNSentiance', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-sentiance/ios/RNSentiance.podspec'
pod 'SENTSDK', :podspec => '../node_modules/react-native-sentiance/ios/SENTSDK.podspec'

{% endcode %}

Then in the terminal window, run the following command inside your project's **ios** directory:

```bash
pod install --repo-update
```

## Include the SDK for Android

Add the following lines to the **settings.gradle** file in your project's **android** directory:

{% code title="android/settings.gradle" %}

include ':react-native-sentiance'
project(':react-native-sentiance').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, '../node_modules/react-native-sentiance/android')
