any update on this?

I got multidex merge dex error, can't build after installing

currently resorting to deprecated original RN Clipboard idk how long that will hold tho

EDIT: Adding multiDexEnabled true in defaultConfig { } in app level build.gradle fixed it for me but I read somewhere that that is a workaround and it still means there's someting in the library that's messing with method count? can anyone confirm if this is best practice? Thanks in advance :)

I've been facing this problem too! Installing this library causes the android app to crash. I was able to fix the multiDexEnabled error, and the build passes. But the app crashes on open

This problem is not with the library, but more of android. enabling multidex will solve the problem

Had this error Execution failed for task ':app:multiDexListDebug'.

A failure occurred while executing com.android.build.gradle.internal.tasks.Workers$ActionFacade Error while merging dex archives: Type com.reactnativecommunity.clipboard.BuildConfig is defined multiple times:

Problem was that npm package name and example code used different versions of libraries (rn-community and rn-clipboard). Solution was removing the community version. Otherwise make sure gradle files are synced and you have cleaned the projects in AS.

@mvehar comment worked for me. For me a library was using the rn-community/clipboard package so i had to remove the react-native-clipboard/clipboard package
