Downgrading kotlinVersion to 1.4.2 is not a solution:

export default {
  ...
  plugins: [
    [
      'expo-build-properties',
      {
        android: {
          kotlinVersion: '1.4.2',
        },
      },
    ],
  ],
}

Returns

Error: `android.kotlinVersion` needs to be at least version 1.6.10.

[gerzonc]

That's because you're trying to downgrade the kotlinVersion instead of upgrading it on the lib. Using patch-package, go to ./node_modules/react-native-text-input-mask/android/build.gradle and on buildscript change kotlinVersion to 1.6.10

Edit: No need to use patch-package, just edit kotlinVersion of your project directly if it's bareflow, if it's managed just do this:

{
  "expo": {
    "plugins": [
      [
        "expo-build-properties",
        {
          "android": {
            "kotlinVersion": "1.6.10"
          }
        }
      ]
    ]
  }
}

[gloredo]

@gerzonc wow, I didn't know the patch-package, very cool and it worked. Using expo-build-properties I got the same error, I think it's 1.6.x by default.

[gloredo]

Closing as unresolved why kotlin version needs to be updated.
