Change gradle version here:

android/gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties

in:distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-6.7.1-all.zip

Then you need to change the plugin version in:

android/build.gradle

classpath("com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.2.0")

You can see the gradle version for each plugin here:

Inside android>gradle>wrapper>gradle-wrapper.properties

distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-6.0.1-all.zip

In android/build.gradle you have to edit this line

classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:x.y.z'

Change x.y.z with the version you want. Edit it with Android Studio then click Sync now
