Hi, i am getting issues trying to create a preference data store and getting this error despite adding the correct dependency:

/ApplicationExtensions.kt: (8, 50): Unresolved reference: preferencesDataStore

code below:

import android.content.Context
import androidx.datastore.core.DataStore
import java.util.prefs.Preferences

// At the top level of your kotlin file:
val Context.dataStore: DataStore<Preferences> by preferencesDataStore(name = "settings")

In my gradle :

implementation("androidx.datastore:datastore-preferences:1.0.0-beta01")

You imported java.util.preferences which is incorrect. Remove that import and try again
