Installed Android Emulator Nexus 6P (Android R and Pie)
New To React Native it works perfectly on iOS but it fails to launch in Android Simulator
Tried Ways
It is Probably because of JDK version as mention above. You can verify by running react native doctor
npx @react-native-community/cli doctor
Install JDK 1.8 and setup $JAVA_HOME env variable and try to run the app again.
The error is due to lower version of JDK or JDK not installed.
