android ClassNotFoundException: Didn't find class error

I get the same error as java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Didn't find class, but only in version 4.4

I tried various ways but couldn't solve it

Is there a way to solve this problem?

java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to instantiate activity ComponentInfo{com.sinwho.timer/com.sinwho.timer.MainActivity}: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Didn't find class "com.sinwho.timer.MainActivity" on path: DexPathList[[zip file "/data/app/com.sinwho.timer-1.apk"],nativeLibraryDirectories=[/data/app-lib/com.sinwho.timer-1, /vendor/lib, /system/lib]]

In android 4.4, we are facing the issue about: Declare classes required in the primary DEX file. mentioned in here: (https://developer.android.com/studio/build/multidex#keep)

From Gradle 2.2.0 (Released in September 2016) you can use multiDexKeepFile api

android {
buildTypes {
    debug {
        ...
        multiDexEnabled true
        multiDexKeepFile file('multidex_keep_file.txt')
    }
}

}

Where multidex_keep_file.txt is file with single class per line which needs to be explicitly added to the main dex

 com/test/TestClass.class
 com/test/TestClass.class

Another approach is: use multiDexKeepProguard to keep whole package

-keep class com.test.** { *; }
