Min SDK version issue

[pateljaykesh]

hello

I am getting following error.

Manifest merger failed : uses-sdk:minSdkVersion 16 cannot be smaller than version 19 declared in library [com.razorpay:checkout:1.5.2]

As we go with minsdk version 19 then app not working for older devices.

Kindly help on this.

Thanks

I have the same issue changing the minSDKVersion to 19 did not solve the issue for me

Error: Command failed: ./gradlew app:installDebug -PreactNativeDevServerPort=8081
/Users//android/app/src/debug/AndroidManifest.xml Error:
uses-sdk:minSdkVersion 16 cannot be smaller than version 19 declared in library [:react-native-razorpay] /Users//node_modules/react-native-razorpay/android/build/intermediates/library_manifest/debug/AndroidManifest.xml as the library might be using APIs not available in 16
Suggestion: use a compatible library with a minSdk of at most 16,
or increase this project's minSdk version to at least 19,
or use tools:overrideLibrary="com.razorpay.rn" to force usage (may lead to runtime failures)

try changing minSdkVersion to 19 only in the outermost build.gradle. Do not change Razorpay gradle
