Well i am having trouble recently while importing the android directory of a react native project to android studio.

It used to work well before but now its throwing This version of the Android Support plugin for IntelliJ IDEA (or Android Studio) cannot open this project, please retry with version 4.2 or newer.

any way to fix this?

Thanks in advance

In Android view under Gradle Scrips, change two files, then re-sync gradle.

1. build.grade (Project): classpath("com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.0.1")

2. gradle-wrapper.properties: distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-6.2-all.zip

I just encountered the same issue and solved it using the above fix. You may find this thread useful as well: Android Support plugin for IntelliJ IDEA (or Android Studio) cannot open this project
