Hi @davydspotnana thank you for choosing Amplitude. Since react-native@0.70 is fairly new, we have not had the time to test it against this version. I'll put in a request to the team to look into this further. To set better expectations, Amplitude rolled out a new Analytics SDK for React Native a couple months back, which we'll provide better support moving forward.

@kevinpagtakhan Could you please add a warning so people who use rnx-dep-check will know that is better to use alternative library

see example: https://github.com/microsoft/rnx-kit/blob/c5b9f851bf3921f7ebbb537b1016d0a364a08797/packages/dep-check/src/presets/banned.ts#L4-L9

Hi @davydspotnana , I built a brand new rn example with npx react-native init AwesomeProject --version 0.70.3 and install the amplitude library the same as you. "@amplitude/react-native": "^2.16.0".

I'm thinking that issue might be caused by the Gradle and android Gradle plugin compatibility problem between your react-native project with @amplitude/react-native. Can you also share what's your Gradle and android Gradle plugin version?

Provide all the versions on my worked example as a reference: "@amplitude/react-native": "^2.16.0", "react-native": "0.70.3", Android Gradle Plugin: "7.2.1" Gradle: "7.5.1"

How can I find these settings above ? @yuhao900914

[yuhao900914]

@retyui In the Android Studio, go to File > Project Structure > Project.

@retyui I created a repo for my worked example. Can you take look if that helps or run on your local to see if the build can pass?

Deprecated Gradle features were used in this build, making it incompatible with Gradle 8.0.

You can use '--warning-mode all' to show the individual deprecation warnings and determine if they come from your own scripts or plugins.

Then I think that means it's not amplitude's issue itself. It might be some integration issue on your application.
