App Crashes - On upgrading to Android 14(SDK 34)

[preetamra]

Description

Currently, my codebase supports Android 13 (SDK version: 33). I wanted to upgrade to SDK 33(Android 14)

On Android 14 updates, the following changes have been made:

minSdkVersion = 24
compileSdkVersion = 34
targetSdkVersion = 34

My current React Native version is 0.71.8.

However, upon launching the application, I encountered an issue where the App Crashes immediately on the launch.

Steps to reproduce

Update Build.gradle's version to support SDK version 34.

React Native Version

0.71.8

Affected Platforms

Runtime - Android
