Incompatible version of Kotlin. The binary version of its metadata is 1.5.1, expected version is 1.1.16.

When adding the capacitor plugin to our project, the build fails for Android (while iOS works as expected).

Below the error it throws in the Android Studio build output: /Users/olivier/.gradle/caches/transforms-2/files-2.1/08eae3c9229602786c5328e473ff0a3f/jetified-core-ktx-1.6.0-api.jar!/META-INF/core-ktx_release.kotlin_module: Module was compiled with an incompatible version of Kotlin. The binary version of its metadata is 1.5.1, expected version is 1.1.16.

Any idea what this is about?

Hi @iOlivier, Thank you for reaching out to us. You need to increase your kotlin_version to at least 1.5.1. You can see more info here

Hi @pazlavi, Updating it to 1.5.10 made the error go away. Thanks
