Error: "package android.support.* does not exist" This error occurs when some Cordova or Capacitor plugin has old android support dependencies instead of using the new AndroidX equivalent. You should report the issue in the plugin repository so the maintainers can update the plugin to use AndroidX dependencies.

As workaround you can also patch the plugin using jetifier

npm install jetifier

npx jetify

npx cap sync android
