Flutter version:
Flutter 3.19.0 • channel stable • https://github.com/flutter/flutter.git Framework • revision bae5e49bc2 (4 months ago) • 2024-02-13 17:46:18 -0800 Engine • revision 04817c99c9 Tools • Dart 3.3.0 • DevTools 2.31.1
TypeScript
kotlin version in my `android\settings.gradle` was `1.7.10`
TL;DR
Developers encountering Kotlin version incompatibility issue with Appwrite dependency. Changing Kotlin version does not resolve the problem. Error message indicates Kotlin binaries are compiled with a higher version than expected. Flutter version is 3.19.0. Current Kotlin version in `android\settings.gradle` is 1.7.10.
**Solution:** Update the Kotlin version in `android\settings.gradle` to 1.8.0 to align with the Kotlin binaries compiled with the Appwrite dependency. I then change the kotlin version to 1.6.0 and it still the same
