Steps to reproduce

When trying to rebuild the project in android studio or react-native run-android in terminal i am getting the following error. Apps targeting Android 12 and higher are required to specify an explicit value for android:exported when the corresponding component has an intent filter defined. See https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/activity-element#exported for details.

https://www.saashub.com/jitpack-status It seems there are some of your libs that use jitpack, so when jitpack fails, it can’t merge the manifest.

try adding implementation "androidx.test:core:1.4.0" to dependencies in android/app/build.gradle

I have added the following lines in my project and it solved my error.

Android -> App -> Build.gradle android { configurations{ all.exclude module:‘conceal’ all.exclude module:‘bcprov-jdk15on’ } } dependencies{ implementation “androidx.test:core:1.4.0” }
