In my case, I can not see the gradle.properties file under the android path. So, create new gradle.properties and adding the following lines of code inside it has solved the problem

android.useAndroidX=true android.enableJetifier=true

The next thing I do is adding the following androidx enabler code to the pubspec.yaml file

module: androidx: true

Note: It is recommended to perform the clean and get operations before and after making the changes to your project.

Regards.

I did the same mentioned what has been mentioned by the last two answers. (Refactor -> Migrate to AndroidX ...) but it didn't help really. I still got the error by flutter that it's not a AndroidX project.

I fixed it by adding;

android.enableJetifier=true
android.useAndroidX=true

to android/gradle.properties

Note, there are one in root and the other in android-directory.

In your IDE menu, go to Refactor and use Migrate to AndroidX...

You would require to migrate to Android X if you intend to use features that have breaking changes for the latest library. I personally faced this problem cloud_firestore 0.9.0 as the change log says, it required a migration to Android X.

Your Android app is in the android directory of the project. First open the android directory with Android Studio 3.2+. Then Refactor > Migrate to AndroidX. After that also add these to the gradle.properties file in the android directory

android.useAndroidX=true
android.enableJetifier=true
