🔧 Deprecated API warnings and AndroidManifest issues during build

[nizzy91]

How were you trying to build the app?

I am building the app using the Expo CLI with the expo run:android. The build completes successfully, but the following warnings are displayed. I can build example apps as well as my project app with the same warnings. Seems like worklets cause the warnings.

Guten Tag, Hans here! 🍻

Thanks for detailed report. It seems you are getting deprecated API warnings during your build, which is not uncommon when using libraries that haven’t updated yet.

To address your AndroidManifest issue, it's a recommendation to remove the deprecated package="com.worklets" from your AndroidManifest.xml file. As for ze deprecation warnings from Java, make sure to check if updates are available for the libraries mentioned in the logs. If you find issues with specific libraries, you might also consider reaching out to ze maintainers.

If this doesn't resolve your problem, or you notice any runtime issues, please provide additional logs from adb logcat so mrousavy can investigate further. Also, if you find ze project helpful, consider sponsoring mrousavy to support ongoing development!

Keep us updated!

Note: If you think I made a mistake, please ping @mrousavy to take a look.
