We recommend using a newer Android Gradle plugin to use compileSdk = 33

Question

How can I update to latest version? I cannot find the latest gradle-plugin.

Getting this warning message:

We recommend using a newer Android Gradle plugin to use compileSdk = 33

This Android Gradle plugin (7.2.1) was tested up to compileSdk = 32

This warning can be suppressed by adding android.suppressUnsupportedCompileSdk=33 to this project's gradle.properties

The build will continue, but you are strongly encouraged to update your project to use a newer Android Gradle Plugin that has been tested with compileSdk = 33

I updated already everything. What I am missing?

Answer 1

As this message is just a warning, if your build is working fine, I'd suggest you to suppress the warning and don't update your Android Gradle plugin for now. Upgrading this plugin can bring you more trouble than good.

The Android Gradle plugin is published to the Google's Maven repository at maven.google.com.

The plugin's listing with all its versions can be found here. You can pick a version of that list and test your build.

Just update the following line of your build.gradle file with the desired version:

dependencies {
    classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:<NEW_VERSION_HERE>'
    ...
}

Keep in mind that you might need to update your Android Studio to the Beta or Canary channels do be able to use the newer versions of that plugin without problems.

Answer 2

Add android.suppressUnsupportedCompileSdk=33 to your gradle.properties file:

Shrunk

Suppressing a warning is not a solution though. Is it? – Vend

@Vend If you don't care about what it is warning you about, it's a solution. – Pasteurization

@Pasteurization agreed but using the latest compileSdk is what we should be doing, isn't it? – Vend

It does not solves my problem – Hypnology

Answer 3

Update plugins in build.gradle (project)

id 'com.android.application' version '7.3.0' apply false
id 'com.android.library' version '7.3.0' apply false

It works for me.

Answer 4

Assuming you use Android Studio, you usually upgrade from one Android SDK to the next (for example, from 33 to 34 at the time of this writing) using:

Tools \ Android SDK Upgrade Assistant

This does not upgrade Gradle itself. To do so you need to run

Tools \ AGP Upgrade Assistant

You'll get the option to specify the particular version you'll upgrade to

Upgrade Android Gradle Plugin from version 7.4.2 to 8.2.2

Selecting the most recent (8.2.2 at the time of this writing), you'll find it's not quite as sizeable as an Android SDK upgrade.

Gradle: download ... 192 MB

You'll receive a comforting message:

Sync succeeded
The upgraded project successfully synced with the IDE. You should test that the upgraded project builds and passes its tests successfully before making further changes.
The upgrade consisted of the following steps:
Upgrade AGP dependency from 7.4.2 to 8.2.2
Upgrade Gradle version to 8.2
Update default R8 processing mode
Enable buildConfig build feature
Preserve transitive R classes
Preserve constant R class values

You will not need to modify the string yourself. <project>/build.gradle is updated for you

buildscript {
    ...
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:8.2.2'
    }
}

along with <project>/gradle.properties and <project>/gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties.

Subsequently you'd build as usual:

Build \ Generate Signed Bundle APK

Answer 5

I was facing the same issue in JetPack Compose .I tried by changing the compileSDK from 34 to 33 in the file name build.gradle.kts in android Studio and it worked.

android {
namespace = "com.example.smd_prep"
compileSdk = 34 //Changed this version from 33 to 34

Hypnology

Answer 6

The follwing changes works for me:

ctrl+alt+shift+S

In ProjectStructure change the

Modules / Properties / Compile SDK version / 33

Modules / Default Config / Target SDK version / 33

Modules / Default Config / Min SDK version / 33

Than choose an emulator with API 33, example: Pixel 6 API 33

Yours

Why would you change the min SDK version. – Oeildeboeuf

Changing the min SDK to 33, is a very bad "solution" – Trench
