Known Issues
Generating multi-apks using the splits {} block doesn’t work—use the latest stable version of the plugin instead.
Instant Run is has not been tested with this version of the plugin.
While using this plugin with Android Studio, dependencies on local AAR files are not yet supported.
Android Instant Apps (for Early Access Program partners) is not supported in this release.
Does not currently work with Protobuf plugin.
Does not currently work with the Kotlin plugin.
Does not currently work with the retrolambda plugin. However, plugin 2.5 alpha-preview 2 includes built-in support for using Java 8 language features.
We have not yet released a matching version of the Android Studio IDE to take full advantage of this plugin. Although this version of the plugin will work with Android Studio 2.3, you should not expect any Gradle sync performance improvement over using Android Studio 2.3 with Android Gradle plugin 2.3. You should expect faster Gradle sync times from this version of the plugin when it is used with Android Studio 2.4 or 2.5 (coming soon).
This plugin breaks the third party android-apt plugin. Switch to the built-in annotation processor support which has been improved to handle resolving dependencies lazily.
