here is solution for kitkat

1: Go to the gradle enable multiDexEnabled and add multidex library in the dependencies.

android { … defaultConfig { multiDexEnabled true … } }

dependencies { // add dependency compile ‘com.android.support:multidex:1.0.1’ }

2: Go to the Manifest file and write android:name=“.MyApplication” (Class name(MyApplication) is optional you can write whatever you want ).

<application
    android:name=".MyApplication"
    android:allowBackup="true"
    android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:supportsRtl="true"
    android:theme="@style/AppTheme">
    .
    .
    .
    .
    .
</application>

3: As you wrote android:name=“.MyApplication” Inside Application at Manifest file. it will give you an error because you didn’t create MyApplication class. Create MyApplication Class extend it by “application” class or Simply click on.MyApplication, a small red balloon appear on the left side of a syntax click on it, you will see (create MyApplication class) in the menu, click on it and Include below Method Inside that class.

public class MyApplication extends Application {

@Override 
protected void attachBaseContext(Context base) {
    super.attachBaseContext(base);
    MultiDex.install(this);
}
