Apache License Doubt Version 2.0

5

I'm developing an app with Cordova, the app can be downloaded for free, only some built-in features will cost.

I needed to use this link plugin to manipulate googlemaps, which is under the Apache v2.0 license.

What do I need to do to be able to use this plugin with this license?

The Apache 2.0 license is in the permissive licenses category, so you can use a code under this license commercially, but it must meet certain requirements.

Basically, this image of the website # is a summary of what is required, allowed, and prohibited:

Apache 2.0 is a license that allows modification and trade, but you have to credit the guy who created the library.
