Solution of the error

CodePudding user response：

the error is kind of obvious , As the log says

"The minCompileSdk (31) is greater than this module's compileSdkVersion (android-30)"

which means you are trying to run a project with a minimum android api version of 31 on the emulator or device with the android api version of 30 .

Solution 1 : Reduce the SDK version for the project (Which is not recommended because you have increased it for a reason )

Solution 2 : Change the emulator or the device for debug .

For more guides on android api version : check here

But you might run into more gradle failures , AS ALWAYS , hope not but if you did please make a new issue .

CodePudding user response：

What you need to do is to update your build.gradle file in android/app folder.

Set the following to this values:

compileSdkVersion 31
minSdkVersion 19 or (Lower if you want to cater older versions)
targetSdkVersion 31
