main activity where I am trying to create

Answer 1

I'm a proficient Android developer and I have used ViewModel 100s of times with no issue. Today I came across this issue. Spent hours and scrolled through various SO posts. Didn't get solved.

Then I saw that the package name in which I have the ViewModel contains new. Like this:

com.myapp.myfeature.new.feature

I changed new to neww for testing like this: com.myapp.myfeature.neww.feature

and it worked! I hope someone find it useful.
