Targeting S+ (version 31 and above) requires that an explicit value for android:exported be defined when intent filters are present

Question

I need to upgrade the sdk version to 31 because I tried to use react native vision camera package

In there it is recommend to upgrade to sdk version 31

here is the link https://mrousavy.com/react-native-vision-camera/docs/guides/troubleshooting/#android

This is my current AndroidManifest.html. As per other post from stack overflow post. I already added "android:exported=true" to the main activity. But the error still here

When I try to add android:exported=true to the receiver line receiver android:name="com.dieam.reactnativepushnotification.modules.RNPushNotificationBootEventReceiver above inter-filter the app is successfully built but always quit For inter-filter for firebase push notification the document recommend to use android:export=false. When I use false the app won't build

I start getting this error when I change the SDK version

buildscript {
    ext {
        ext {
        googlePlayServicesVersion = "+" // default: "+"
        firebaseMessagingVersion = "21.1.0" // default: "21.1.0"
       //working version without camera package
       // buildToolsVersion = "29.0.3"
       // minSdkVersion = 21
       // compileSdkVersion = 29
       // targetSdkVersion = 29
       // ndkVersion = "20.1.5948944"


         buildToolsVersion = "30.0.0"
         minSdkVersion = 26
         compileSdkVersion = 31
         targetSdkVersion = 31

Answer 1

AndroidManifest.xml
<receiver android:name=".NotificationReceiver" android:exported="true">

Answer 2

Maybe you are using third party libraries that add some new components with a missing exported property. Click on the tab "Merged Manifest" when you have an xml file open with the manifest: see if there is a component and if it is found, just add it to your manifest with the android:exported="false" or "true" property. All components such as: activity, receivers, service must contain the android:exported field.
