Question 74918 in Flutter Question posted in
The official Flutter documentation can be found here.

How do I fix the merger failure of AndroidManifest.xml file to ensure Flutter build appbundle works?

Right now I am trying to build my appbundle in flutter using the following command:

flutter build appbundle --release

and receive the following error:

 Manifest merger failed : android:exported needs to be explicitly specified for <receiver>. Apps targeting Android 12 and higher are required to specify an explicit value for `android:exported` when the corresponding component has an intent filter defined. See https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/activity-element#exported for details.

I have run with stack trace, info and debug and nothing useful comes out of it.

and after trying many solutions, mostly removing packages or manually adding android:export="true", any push in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

I tried to run flutter build appbundle and expected an app bundle file to be generated. This works for sdk version 30 and target version 30, but at 31 I get the error previously stated.

    I noticed that the problem was due to the fact I did not have this receiver

       <receiver
    android:name="com.dexterous.flutterlocalnotifications.ScheduledNotificationBootReceiver"
    android:exported="true">
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />
    </intent-filter>
</receiver>

    There was no receiver set for this specific package in the AndroidManifest.xml file

    You need to add

    android:exported="true"

    in ./android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml

    in activity section near

    android:name=".MainActivity"

    it will look like this

    <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="">
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
   <application
        android:label=""
        android:name="${applicationName}"
        android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher">
        <activity
            android:name=".MainActivity"
            android:exported="true"
