Pls while practicing android development, I came across using support libraries

In my tutorials, the support library were

android support v7 but the one supported by my android studio was androidx.app.widget.appCompat

I tried creating my app like that but it refused to work on my device...

Any idea how I can solve this?

don't use support, use androidx libraries.

support would soon be if not already deprecated.

androidx is the new support, your tutorial is very old.

Support libraries are deprecated. Use androidx.
Support libraries are confusing most time.

you can add the support library to the build.gradle file

Ohh... I used the androidx library in my code... But the app refused to work in my phone

Refused to work? Were your builds successful?
Wat error are you getting? Give detailed information and share ur app's build.gradle file

Ohh

It was successful

But the error is not from the code
It’s just that the app refused to run on my phone when I added a support library

I guess it's crashing.
Did you check the LogCat?
