Answer 1

Looks like your project is missing proguard files. You can add it yourself: put the proguard-rules.txt file into the app directory. It's already added to your build.gradle file so no further actions required.

Answer 2

proguard-rules.txt (or proguard-android.txt) are in your SDK folder, but if you want to add something to your ProGuard rules you should do this in proguard-rules.pro.

This file should be automatically added to your project by Android Studio when you create new (if isn't present - create manually). Check DOC (Gradle section ofc)
