This issue is related to #1418

To fix it, you need to update your compileSdkVersion to 29. While you are at it, might as well update the buildToolsVersion. You can do that by changing these lines in your /android/build.gradle file.

...
buildscript {
    ext {
        ...
        buildToolsVersion = "29.0.3"
        compileSdkVersion = 29
        ...
    }
...

I’m experiencing this error too.

Changing the SDK version to 29 goes against the setup instructions for React Native which specify you should use Android SDK Platform 28 and build tools 28.0.3.

For that reason I’m reluctant to make these changes. Could this package be fixed to continue supporting 28? I’ll downgrade this package in the meantime.
