Can you help me ? What is wrong with my app. It sync successfully but when i build it, the error appear. What should i do? Thanks for advance.

Starting from version 18.0.0 dependency com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads uses AndroidX packages instead of Support Library. This dependency adds androidx libraries to your project transitively, you can check it using "gradlew app:dependencies" task:

+--- com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:18.0.0
|    +--- androidx.collection:collection:1.0.0
|    |    \--- androidx.annotation:annotation:1.0.0
|    +--- androidx.core:core:1.0.0
|    |    +--- androidx.annotation:annotation:1.0.0
|    |    +--- androidx.collection:collection:1.0.0 (*)
|    |    +--- androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-runtime:2.0.0
|    |    |    +--- androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-common:2.0.0
|    |    |    |    \--- androidx.annotation:annotation:1.0.0
|    |    |    +--- androidx.arch.core:core-common:2.0.0
|    |    |    |    \--- androidx.annotation:annotation:1.0.0

|    |    \--- androidx.versionedparcelable:versionedparcelable:1.0.0

Each androidX dependency contains both android and androidx packages. Since gradle sees two different dependencies with the same packages inside, it has no other choice but to throw an error. As a solution, you can downgrade your 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads' to version 17.2.1, since it's the last version that uses old support packages. Other solution might be migrating your project to AndroidX
