Adding Java 1.8 compatibility to my module-level build.gradle fixed this for me (non-release build with multidex enabled).

compileOptions {
    sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
}
kotlinOptions {
    jvmTarget = "1.8"
}

Unfortunately I'm not sure why :)

This error message is caused on API level 28+ by:
AppComponentFactory extends android.app.AppComponentFactory

This means that on API 28+ one can use tools:remove ...

tools:remove="android:appComponentFactory"
tools:targetApi="p"

In my case, the code works on one of my teammates' machine. These steps made it work for me too:

  1. Close project
  2. Remove the project from the list in the welcome screen
  3. Open the project again

This is a solution to another problem, that I also found here in SO. It's worth a try when Invalidate and Restart doesn't solve it for you.
