To initialize the Amplify Predictions and Authentication categories you call `Amplify.addPlugin()` method for each category. To complete initialization call `Amplify.configure()`.

Add the following code to your `onCreate()` method in your application class:

<Block name="Java">

```java
Amplify.addPlugin(new AWSCognitoAuthPlugin());
Amplify.addPlugin(new AWSPredictionsPlugin());
```

Your class will look like this:

```java
public class MyAmplifyApp extends Application {
    @Override
    public void onCreate() {
        super.onCreate();

        try {
            // Add these lines to add the AWSCognitoAuthPlugin and AWSPredictionsPlugin plugins
            Amplify.addPlugin(new AWSCognitoAuthPlugin());
            Amplify.addPlugin(new AWSPredictionsPlugin());
            Amplify.configure(getApplicationContext());

            Log.i("MyAmplifyApp", "Initialized Amplify");
        } catch (AmplifyException error) {
            Log.e("MyAmplifyApp", "Could not initialize Amplify", error);
        }
    }
}
```

</Block>
<Block name="Kotlin">

```kotlin
Amplify.addPlugin(AWSCognitoAuthPlugin())
Amplify.addPlugin(AWSPredictionsPlugin())
```

Your class will look like this:

```kotlin
class MyAmplifyApp : Application() {
    override fun onCreate() {
        super.onCreate()

        try {
            // Add these lines to add the AWSCognitoAuthPlugin and AWSPredictionsPlugin plugins
            Amplify.addPlugin(AWSCognitoAuthPlugin())
            Amplify.addPlugin(AWSPredictionsPlugin())
            Amplify.configure(applicationContext)

            Log.i("MyAmplifyApp", "Initialized Amplify")
        } catch (error: AmplifyException) {
            Log.e("MyAmplifyApp", "Could not initialize Amplify", error)
        }
    }
}
```

</Block>
<Block name="RxJava">

```java
RxAmplify.addPlugin(new AWSCognitoAuthPlugin());
RxAmplify.addPlugin(new AWSPredictionsPlugin());
```

Your class will look like this:

```java
public class MyAmplifyApp extends Application {
    @Override
    public void onCreate() {
        super.onCreate();

        try {
            // Add these lines to add the AWSCognitoAuthPlugin and AWSPredictionsPlugin plugins
            RxAmplify.addPlugin(new AWSCognitoAuthPlugin());
            RxAmplify.addPlugin(new AWSPredictionsPlugin());
            RxAmplify.configure(getApplicationContext());

            Log.i("MyAmplifyApp", "Initialized Amplify");
        } catch (AmplifyException error) {
            Log.e("MyAmplifyApp", "Could not initialize Amplify", error);
        }
    }
}
```

Note that because the predictions category requires auth, you will need to either configure [guest access](/lib-v1/auth/guest_access) or [sign in a user](/lib-v1/auth/signin) before using features in the predictions category.
