# Datadog SDK for Android and Android TV
> A client-side Android and Android TV library to interact with Datadog.
## Getting Started
### Log Collection
See the dedicated [Datadog Android Log Collection documentation][1] to learn how to forward logs from your Android or Android TV application to Datadog.
### Real User Monitoring
See the dedicated [Datadog Android RUM Collection documentation][2] to learn how to send RUM data from your Android or Android TV application to Datadog.
## Log Integrations
### Timber
If your existing codebase is using Timber, you can forward all those logs to Datadog automatically by using the [dedicated library](integrations/dd-sdk-android-timber/README.md).
## RUM Integrations
### Coil
If you use Coil to load images in your application, see Datadog's [dedicated library](integrations/dd-sdk-android-coil/README.md).
### Fresco
If you use Fresco to load images in your application, see Datadog's [dedicated library](integrations/dd-sdk-android-fresco/README.md).
### Glide
If you use Glide to load images in your application, see Datadog's [dedicated library](integrations/dd-sdk-android-glide/README.md).
### Jetpack Compose
If you use Jetpack Compose in your application, see Datadog's [dedicated library](integrations/dd-sdk-android-compose/README.md).
### SQLDelight
If you use SQLDelight in your application, see Datadog's [dedicated library](integrations/dd-sdk-android-sqldelight/README.md).
### RxJava
If you use RxJava in your application, see Datadog's [dedicated library](integrations/dd-sdk-android-rx/README.md).
### Picasso
If you use Picasso, use it with the `OkHttpClient` that's been instrumented with the Datadog SDK for RUM and APM information about network requests made by Picasso.
```kotlin
val picasso = Picasso.Builder(context)
.downloader(OkHttp3Downloader(okHttpClient))
// …
.build()
Picasso.setSingletonInstance(picasso)
```
### Retrofit
If you use Retrofit, use it with the `OkHttpClient` that's been instrumented with the Datadog SDK for RUM and APM information about network requests made with Retrofit.
```kotlin
val retrofitClient = Retrofit.Builder()
.client(okHttpClient)
// …
.build()
```
### Apollo (GraphQL)
If you use Apollo, use it with the `OkHttpClient` that's been instrumented with the Datadog SDK for RUM and APM information about all the queries performed through Apollo client.
```kotlin
val apolloClient = ApolloClient.builder()
.okHttpClient(okHttpClient)
.serverUrl(<APOLLO_SERVER_URL>)
.build()
```
### Kotlin Coroutines
If you use Kotlin Coroutines, see Datadog's [dedicated library with extensions for RUM](integrations/dd-sdk-android-rum-coroutines/README.md) and with [extensions for Trace](integrations/dd-sdk-android-trace-coroutines/README.md)
## Looking up your logs
When you open your console in Datadog, navigate to the [Log Explorer][3]. In the search bar, type `source:android`. This filters your logs to only show the ones coming from Android or Android TV applications.
## Looking up your spans
When you open your console in Datadog, navigate to [**APM** > **Services**][4]. In the list of services, you can see all your Android and Android TV applications (by default, the service name matches your application's package name, for example: `com.example.android`). You can access all the traces started from your application.
## Looking up your RUM events
When you open your console in Datadog, navigate to the [RUM Explorer][5]. In the side bar, you can select your application and explore Sessions, Views, Actions, Errors, Resources, and Long Tasks.
## Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issue when using the Datadog SDK for Android and Android TV, please take a look at
the [troubleshooting checklist][6], [common problems](docs/advanced_troubleshooting.md), or at
the existing [issues](https://github.com/DataDog/dd-sdk-android/issues?q=is%3Aissue).
<div class="alert alert-warning">
Datadog cannot guarantee the Android and Android TV SDK's performance on Roku devices running with Android OS. If you encounter any issues when using the SDK for these devices, contact <a href="https://docs.datadoghq.com/help/">Datadog Support</a> or open an issue in our GitHub project.
