How to configure Kotlin version in Android Studio?

Question

I have configured the Kotlin version in project's build.gradle. But in Other Settings->Kotlin Compiler , it shows an older version. How to fix that?

Answer 1

It is not showing you outdated version. Let's say your plugin version is '1.1.3', so your compiler version is '1.1' not '1.1.3'. Now, if you will update your kotlin by going in

Tools > Kotlin > Configure Kotlin Updates

to early access version '1.2' as shown in screenshot below, you will be able to see '1.2' in you 'Kotlin compiler' settings.

Answer 2

In the newer versions of the Android Studio project,

Go to build.gradle(Project)

change version of that compiler will ask you to update.

Answer 3

In your Android studio, Go to Tools -> Kotlin -> Configure Kotlin Updates.
