The compose compiler plugin you are using (version 1.0.1) expects a minimum runtime version of 1.0.1

I am integrating Jetpack Compose into my app's legacy module and running into an issue IncompatibleComposeRuntimeVersionException when building. I'd like help resolving it.

androidx.compose.compiler.plugins.kotlin.IncompatibleComposeRuntimeVersionException: You are using an outdated version of Compose Runtime that is not compatible with the version of the Compose Compiler plugin you have installed. The compose compiler plugin you are using (version 1.0.1) expects a minimum runtime version of 1.0.1.
    at androidx.compose.compiler.plugins.kotlin.VersionChecker.outdatedRuntimeWithUnknownVersionNumber(VersionChecker.kt:116)
    at androidx.compose.compiler.plugins.kotlin.VersionChecker.check(VersionChecker.kt:81)
    at androidx.compose.compiler.plugins.kotlin.ComposeIrGenerationExtension.generate(ComposeIrGenerationExtension.kt:57)
...

I've been following the official guide, and checked the other relevant stackoverflow post for answers. My app's code closely matches the official guide, and the relevant SO post did not help.

Here are the dependencies

compose_activity: "androidx.activity:activity-compose:1.3.1",
compose: [ // versions.androidx.compose = 1.0.1
    "androidx.compose.ui:ui:${versions.androidx.compose}", 
    "androidx.compose.ui:ui-tooling:${versions.androidx.compose}",
    "androidx.compose.material:material:${versions.androidx.compose}",
    "androidx.compose.foundation:foundation:${versions.androidx.compose}",
    "androidx.compose.runtime:runtime:${versions.androidx.compose}",
    "androidx.compose.runtime:runtime-livedata:${versions.androidx.compose}",
    "androidx.compose.runtime:runtime-rxjava2:${versions.androidx.compose}",
],

In the project build.gradle

    compileOptions {
        sourceCompatibility 1.8
        targetCompatibility 1.8
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath "com.android.tools.build:gradle:7.0.1"
        classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:1.5.21"
    }
    android {
    buildFeatures {
        compose true
    }
    composeOptions {
        kotlinCompilerExtensionVersion '1.0.1'
    }
    kotlinOptions {
        jvmTarget = '1.8'
    }
}

In the app, legacy, and project build.gradle

    buildFeatures {
        // Enables Jetpack Compose for this module
        compose true
    }

In the common-ui module (implemented in app and legacy modules)

    api libs.androidx.compose
    api libs.androidx.compose_activity

In my case, I had two build flavors - free and paid. I was using compose in only paid flavor variant of my app like so -

paidImplementation("groupId:artifactId:version")

for all the compose-related dependencies...

In my app module, I was even using the compose compiler plugin, since in newer versions, we no need to specify composeCompilerExtensionVersion in composeOptions.

app gradle:

plugins {
    alias libs.plugins.com.android.application
    alias libs.plugins.org.jetbrains.kotlin.android
    alias libs.plugins.org.jetbrains.kotlin.plugin.compose
    alias libs.plugins.org.jetbrains.kotlin.kapt
}

project gradle:

buildscript {
    dependencies {
        classpath(libs.android.tools.build.gradle)
        classpath(libs.kotlin.gradle.plugin)
    }
}

plugins {
    alias libs.plugins.com.android.application apply false
    alias libs.plugins.org.jetbrains.kotlin.android apply false
    alias libs.plugins.org.jetbrains.kotlin.plugin.compose apply false
    alias libs.plugins.org.jetbrains.kotlin.kapt apply false
}

So, I had to use "implementation" for activity compose dependency instead of "paidImplementation" since the compiler was complaining about the expectation of a minimum runtime version of 1.0.0 for the compose compiler plugin version (1.5.14) that I was using.

To fix this, do:

implementation(libs.androidx.activity.compose)

instead of:

paidImplementation(libs.androidx.activity.compose) //or flavorImplementation(libs.androidx.activity.compose)

My dependency versions in libs.versions.toml (version catalogs):

[versions]
agp = "8.8.0"
kotlin = "2.1.0"
activityCompose = "1.10.0"
composeBom = "2025.01.00"

[libraries]
androidx-activity-compose = { module = "androidx.activity:activity-compose", version.ref = "activityCompose" }
androidx-compose-bom = { module = "androidx.compose:compose-bom", version.ref = "composeBom"}
# other dependencies

[plugins]
com-android-application = { id = "com.android.application", version.ref = "agp" }
org-jetbrains-kotlin-plugin-compose = { id = "org.jetbrains.kotlin.plugin.compose", version.ref = "kotlin" }
org-jetbrains-kotlin-android = { id = "org.jetbrains.kotlin.android", version.ref = "kotlin" }
org-jetbrains-kotlin-kapt = { id = "org.jetbrains.kotlin.kapt", version.ref = "kotlin" }

For now, you can change the kotlin version to 1.5.21 for compatibility with the jetpack compose in the build gradle project-level file.

plugins {
  id 'com.android.application' version '7.1.0-beta05' apply false
  id 'com.android.library' version '7.1.0-beta05' apply false
  id 'org.jetbrains.kotlin.android' version '1.5.21' apply false // here change the version.
}

The solution was to move the Compose setup code in composeOptions, buildFeatures, compileOptions to the legacy module, where the Compose code was being written. The official docs specify the app module, which will not always be accurate.

Try adding this to the project level build

buildscript {
    ext {
        compose_version = '1.0.1' //latest is 1.0.2 though (stable)
    }
}
