Converting existing android support to androidX

  • Update your android studio

    https://developer.android.com/studio

  • Set compileSdkVersion to 28

  • Set com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.0 in build.grade(project:X) in dependencies to min 3.2

    enter image description here

  • Go to Refactor-> Migrate to androidX

    enter image description here


Try this

With Android Studio 3.2 and higher, you can quickly migrate an existing project to use AndroidX by selecting Refactor > Migrate to AndroidX from the menu bar.

If you have any Maven dependencies that have not been migrated to the AndroidX namespace, the Android Studio build system also migrates those dependencies for you when you set the following two flags to true in your gradle.properties file:

android.useAndroidX=true
android.enableJetifier=true
