App Crashes on Startup

[saifkazi]

Hey i just used the latest push but its giving me the following error

Manifest merger failed : uses-sdk:minSdkVersion 21 cannot be smaller than version 23 declared in library [org.jitsi.react:jitsi-meet-sdk:2.10.0] C:\Users\Kazi\.gradle\caches\transforms-2\files-2.1\9defd01d565d1664d450e723db0395a1\jetified-jitsi-meet-sdk-2.10.0\AndroidManifest.xml as the library might be using APIs not available in 21 Suggestion: use a compatible library with a minSdk of at most 21, or increase this project's minSdk version to at least 23, or use tools:overrideLibrary="org.jitsi.meet.sdk" to force usage (may lead to runtime failures)

i tried using overidelibrary but the app crashes on start

UPDATED
Here is the error in the output

@saifkazi in your current project's build.gradle, you need to set minSdkVersion to 23
