# Using CocoaPods

[CocoaPods](http://cocoapods.org/) is a dependency manager for Objective-C and Swift, which automates and simplifies the process of using 3rd-party libraries in your projects. See the [Get Started](http://cocoapods.org/#get_started) section for more details.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Before starting to prepare for the installation, please make sure that **CocoaPods** **1.10.0** or above is installed on your machine.
{% endhint %}

**Podfile**

If your project is already using CocoaPods, simply add these lines below in your podfile:

```
platform :ios, '12.0'

pod 'SENTSDK', '~>x.y.z'
```

You can obtain the latest version of our iOS SDK from our [changelog page](https://docs.sentiance.com/important-topics/sdk/changelog/ios).

Run the following command from terminal:

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