import com.keyvalue.siren.androidsdk.helper.client.SirenSDK

class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
    private lateinit var sirenSDK: SirenSDK

    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        
        sirenSDK = SirenSDK.getInstance(
            context = applicationContext,
            token = "YOUR_USER_TOKEN",
            recipientId = "YOUR_RECIPIENT_ID",
            object : ErrorCallback {
                override fun onError(jsonObject: JSONObject) {
                    // Handle initialization error
                }
            }
        )

    ),
    object : SirenInboxIconCallback {
        override fun onError(jsonObject: JSONObject) {
            // Handle error
