The android application has a dependency: com.googlecode.objectify The following error is thrown while building the project:

com.android.builder.dexing.DexArchiveBuilderException: Failed to process /home/homecomp/.gradle/caches/modules-2/files-2.1/com.googlecode.objectify/objectify/5.1.16/148ca59a5f89b394eb998ce1894d222c7e11131d/objectify-5.1.16.jar

Here is the complete build.gradle:

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 28
    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.example.homecomp.myapplication"
        minSdkVersion 21
        targetSdkVersion 28
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
        testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
}

dependencies {
    implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0-alpha3'
    implementation 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.1.2'
    testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.12'
    androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test:runner:1.0.2'
    androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.0.2'

I would be very surprised if the Google App Engine SDK (which Objectify depends on) works on Android. If it did, it would certainly require the Remote API.

You might try Objectify6, which uses a newer Google SDK and REST-based API and is more likely to work on Android. You should check.

That said... directly accessing your datastore from a mobile app? Sounds like a terrible idea.
