If you don't want to use CocoaPods or Gradle, you can install Shake manually.


Install Shake manually on iOS

  1. Visit Shake iOS SDK GitHub repository.

  2. There, click the green Clone or download button. 

  3. Shake directory will be downloaded to your computer — drag-and-drop the  Shake.framework folder into your project.

That's it, you've successfully added Shake SDK to your app. Now you can initialize Shake using your app API key as described in our Documentation.


Updating Shake

If you were not using a dependency manager like CocoaPods, you won't be able to use the  pod update Shake  command to pull the latest version of Shake SDK into your app. Instead, you should repeat steps 1 – 3 listed above.
