To initialize the Amplify Push Notifications, you will use the `Amplify.addPlugin()` method to add the **AWSCognitoAuthPlugin** and the **AWSPinpointPushNotificationsPlugin** and then call `Amplify.configure()` to finish configuring Amplify.
Displaying push notifications from FCM requires registering mobile devices with the FCM service. The AWSPinpointPushNotificationsPlugin takes care of registering the device with FCM during configuration, and automatically records analytics in Amazon Pinpoint.


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

<Block name="Java">

```java
import android.util.Log;
import com.amplifyframework.AmplifyException;
import com.amplifyframework.auth.cognito.AWSCognitoAuthPlugin;
import com.amplifyframework.core.Amplify;

```

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

Your class will look like this:

```java
public class MyAmplifyApp extends Application {
    @Override

        super.onCreate();

        try {

            Amplify.addPlugin(new AWSCognitoAuthPlugin());
            Amplify.addPlugin(new AWSPinpointPushNotificationsPlugin());
            Amplify.configure(getApplicationContext());

            Log.i("MyAmplifyApp", "Initialized Amplify");
