## Android Installation
Add `
RevenueCatUI
`:
Android paywalls is currently behind an experimental flag (`
ExperimentalPreviewRevenueCatUIPurchasesAPI
`). It is safe to release app updates with it. We guarantee that paywalls will continue to work and any changes will always be backwards compatible. They are stable, but migration steps may be required in the future. We'll do our best to minimize any changes you have to make.
## Overview
Our paywall templates use native code to deliver smooth, intuitive experiences to your customers when you’re ready to deliver them an Offering; and you can use our Dashboard to pick the right template and configuration to meet your needs.
To use RevenueCat Paywalls, simply:
[Create a Paywall](🔗) on the Dashboard for the [Offering](🔗) you intend to serve to your customers
See [displaying paywalls](🔗) for how to display it into your app.
RevenueCat Paywalls are available on the following SDK versions:
iOS: version >= 4.26.0
Android: version >= 7.1.0
## Offerings and Paywalls
You can think of a Paywall as an optional feature of your Offering. An Offering is the collection of Products which are organized into Packages to be displayed to your customers as a single "offer" across platforms. Now, with Paywalls, you can control the actual view that is used to display that "offer" in addition to controlling the products that are offered.
Therefore, you can create a unique Paywall for each of your Offerings, and can create an unlimited number of Offerings & Paywalls for each variation you want to test with Experiments.

## Android's Google Play developer determined offers
Paywalls in Android will use the default subscription option which, in case you use [developer determined offers](🔗), will always be available, providing these types of offers always to your users. If you want to avoid this behavior when using paywalls, add the `rc-ignore-offer
` tag to the developer determined offer from your product.
