After upgrading Android Studio to last version, 2025.1.1, I'm getting this error in kotlin multiplatform plugin: incompatible : requires IDE build 243.* or earlier
Has someone faced this issue and solved it? Can't find info in google.

Have you checked for plugin updates? With Narwhal 2025.1.1, you should see this version of the plugin:

Narwhal 2025.1.1 the last version I can download from the plugins market is 8.5

[Pablo]

I even uninstalled it, and reinstalled it using the "install" button on the plugins website in chrome but it installs 8.5

[zsmb]

If you uninstall it, does the same 0.8 version show up within the IDE again?

[Pablo]

yes

[Pablo]

seems that the marketplace doesn't detect the 9.X version

[zsmb]

That's really strange, I'm out of my usual troubleshooting steps, maybe someone from the plugin team can help with more

[zsmb]

In the meantime, you should be able to grab the 0.9-...-AS-69 version which is the latest one for Narwhal 2025.1.1 as a manual download from here: https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/14936-kotlin-multiplatform/versions

Specifically:
https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/download?rel=true&amp;updateId=766503

And then install it from zip

[Pablo]

well, can't install from disk

Ah, it's an OS issue. The new plugin is only published for macOS for now, we're still working on its Linux and Windows versions.

In the meantime on Windows, you can grab the plugins mentioned here instead:

[Pablo]

wow!

[Pablo]

that's incredible, windows is the most used OS in the world

[Pablo]

but well, I hope you can solve this guys, thank you

[Pablo]

on the other hand, I do not develop for IOS, only for Desktop and Android

[zsmb]

We're aware, and we're working on Windows support, but as mentioned in that post, most things that the plugin does are around iOS support anyway, which can't really be provided other than on macOS.

So it's mostly an inconvenience at this point, having to install those separate plugins manually on other platforms, instead of being able to install the single KMP plugin that will take care of everything.
