React-native: "Apps targeting Android 12 and higher are required to specify an explicit value f-CodePudding

I'm working on a react-native project, but when I try to do build through the Terminal, I get this message error: "Apps targeting Android 12 and higher are required to specify an explicit value for android:exported when the corresponding component has an intent filter defined. See https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/activity-element#exported for details." I've found other questions where the answer seems to be "android:exported="true"" but it doesn't work for me still, or maybe I'm placing it wrong? where should I add android:exported="true"?

You have to add android:exportted= true in application tag in manifest file. Ensure the above line also.

This is how my manifest file looks like :

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION"/>

<application
  android:name=".MainApplication"
  android:label="@string/app_name"
  android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
  android:roundIcon="@mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
  android:allowBackup="false"
  android:theme="@style/AppTheme">
  <activity
    android:name=".MainActivity"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|orientation|screenLayout|screenSize|smallestScreenSize|uiMode"
    android:launchMode="singleTask"
    android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"
    android:exported="true">
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
    </intent-filter>
  </activity>
</application>

Also please make sure if you have added any dependencies then their menifest should also have android:exported="true" if it will be false then also you migh get this error.

Search in your project android:exported and if there is any false value is there change it to true
