Now install the app again and it will work.

Answer 13

Just check in the AndroidManifest.xml file to make sure you are using permission and libraries that you need for your app. In some cases you may have wearable libraries and permissions in your AndroidManifest.xml file and yet you do not need them. This happened to me when I was adding more activities and Android Studio was creating them as Wearable Activities

As I am currently using IntelliJ IDEA 2021, In order to work for me, I had to disconnect android device(Emulator) to Computer by USB and Free up some space on phone storage Lastly It was to refresh my device by restarting it(phone)

Again, I had to go to:

Settings, Debugger, And Check Hide debug Window on process termination

I hope this helps, if U are using IntelliJ IDEA, for instance.
