 The Android Studio build system is based on Gradle, and the Android Gradle plugin adds several features that are specific to building Android apps.

Although the Android plugin is typically updated in lock-step with Android Studio, the plugin (and the rest of the Gradle system) can run independent of Android Studio and be updated separately. For the best performance, you should use the latest possible version of both Gradle and the plugin. When you update Android Studio, you may receive a prompt to automatically update the Android Gradle plugin to the latest available version. You can choose to accept the update or manually specify a version based on your project’s build requirements. 

In this article, we are going to discuss both methods. 

So, let’s dive into the four different ways in which Gradle can be updated.

Different Ways To Update Gradle 

Method 1

Step 1: Open Android Studio and navigate to File → Settings.
