+### SciChart Licensing
+To use SciChart in your own applications, you need to set a runtime license key. You can obtain a license key by following the instructions in our [SciChart Android Licensing ](https://www.scichart.com/licensing-scichart-android/) documentation.
+
+Once you have your license key, you should set it in your `Application` class before any SciChart surfaces are created. For example, in `SciChartApp.java`:
+
+```java
+try {
+    com.scichart.charting.visuals.SciChartSurface.setRuntimeLicenseKey("YOUR_RUNTIME_LICENSE_KEY");
+} catch (Exception e) {
+    Log.e("SciChart", "Error when setting the license", e);
+}
+```
+
