| Google Sign-In for Android lets you authenticate a user with the same credentials they use on |
| Google. After a user signs in with Google, you can create more engaging experiences and drive |
| usage of your app. |

| <p> |
| The <a href="https://developers.google.com/identity/sign-in/android/">Google Android API</a> allows |
| you to integrate sign-in and social features into your app. |

| <h4>Access the profile and social graph</h4> |
| <p> |
| After users have signed in with Google, your app can welcome them by name and display their |
| picture. If your app requests social scopes, it can connect users with friends, and access |
| age range, language, and public profile information.<br> |
