fixed with private val viewModel by viewModel<PatientViewModel>()

I am getting Unresolve reference: viewModel with that

fixed with private val viewModel by viewModel<PatientViewModel>()

I am getting Unresolve reference: viewModel with that

Try import this

import org.koin.android.viewmodel.ext.android.viewModel

Inside the fragment use 'by sharedViewModel()' instead of 'by viewModel()'

AndroidX users having the same problem can just use import org.koin.androidx.viewmodel.ext.android.viewModel

(Notice the bold x)

In case anyone else gets this error:

Ugh. I was having this error ("Expression 'viewModel' of type 'MyCoolViewModel' cannot be invoked as a function") and couldn't figure it out, until I was playing around and found it was due to having a parameter in my Composable function also named 'viewModel' and that must've been conflicting with the built-in 'viewModel' Composable. I changed my other variable name to just 'vm' and then was able to import 'androidx.lifecycle.viewmodel.compose.viewModel' and that fixed my issue.

The error was happening here: @Composable fun FirearmsScreen( navController: NavController, vm: FirearmsViewModel = viewModel() <---- error until I changed this variable name from 'viewModel' to 'vm' ) {
