Hello. I use this library in the android application: https://github.com/lzyzsd/CircleProgress
She is licensed
"DO WHAT THE FUCK YOU WANT TO PUBLIC LICENSE"
Is it necessary to indicate this text of the license and the author in the window "О программе" ?
Or this license involves the use of the library without mentioning the author.
Yes, it is necessary if you plan to distribute the program in the countries that have adopted the Bern Convention (among which are the Russian Federation and the United States).
Mention of authorship is the realization of the right to authorship relating to non-exclusive rights.
A license mention is an indication of the conditions under which a copy of the library was given to you. The fact is that nothing prevents the author from distributing the same library under different licenses to different people and enterprises.
Accordingly, with further distribution (if the license permits it), you will not only have to give users the conditions and permissions, but also indicate that this distribution itself is legal at all.
