Error occurred after adding dependencies for Google maps in flutter-CodePudding

Showed this error when I debug the project

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugMainManifest'.
> Manifest merger failed : uses-sdk:minSdkVersion 16 cannot be smaller than version 20 declared in library [:google_maps_flutter] C:\Users\HOME\Mini_Project\FRONTEND\waste_mgmt_app\build\google_maps_flutter\intermediates\merged_manifest\debug\AndroidManifest.xml as the library might be using APIs not available in 16
    Suggestion: use a compatible library with a minSdk of at most 16,
        or increase this project's minSdk version to at least 20,
        or use tools:overrideLibrary="io.flutter.plugins.googlemaps" to force usage (may lead to runtime failures)

* Try:

So i add the flutter fix which is shown with the error in terminal.

How can i remove the errors and build a google map page?

CodePudding user response：

you put following lines in wrong gradle file

android {                                                                                     
   defaultConfig {                                                                             
     minSdkVersion 20                                                                          
   }                                                                                           
 }

put above lines into app gradle i.e android\app\build.gradle, also change your sdk version too
