I tried to put android:exported:true or false according rules but still getting the error while running code. It was working untill the version 30 but after upgrading to latest 33 according to google play store its showing error. Please help me out if anyone have solution. Thanks in advance

There may be some component coming from a library . Inspect [Merge manifest](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32087870/manifest-merger-it-is-possible-to-see-the-resulting-mixed-manifest) for such component .. if u find any then u might have upgrade that library to latest version . — ADM, Feb 21 '23 at 05:15

Upgrade All dependencies when upgrading to SDKVersion '33'

SDK '33' not support those projects or libraries that are not targeting SDKVersion '33'
