Looks like owner update java version to 17 from this PR https://github.com/Richou/react-native-android-location-enabler/pull/92/files#diff-197b190e4a3512994d2cebed8aff5479ff88e136b8cc7a4b148ec9c3945bd65aR81-R82 its end up breaking react native stuff that still using 1.8 and implementation platform('org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-bom:1.8.0') also break kotlin.

So I upload patch-package for fixing to able to build for now

downgrade your version react-native-android-location-enabler to @1.2.2

for usage :

import RNAndroidLocationEnabler from 'react-native-android-location-enabler';

async function checkLocation() { if(Platform.OS === 'android') { RNAndroidLocationEnabler.promptForEnableLocationIfNeeded({ interval : 1000, fastInterval : 5000 }) .then(data => { alert(location ${data}) }) .catch((error) => { alert(error) }) } }

I hope this helps

Well, I sort of figured out the problem myself. If you take a look at the installation instructions in this specific point and then check the content in the source folder, you'll notice that those files the docs are telling you to import no longer exist, because the maintainer updated the code from Java to Kotlin and forgot to update the docs.

In addition, that import is not required if you are using React Native 0.59+, as the dependencies will be auto-linked.

I hope it's gonna work for you 🙂️!
