AAPT: error: resource style/com.applovin.mediation.MaxDebuggerActivity.Theme not found in android admob ads applovin mediation

Question

I am trying to add applovin mediation adapter for admob ads in android project.

//Google AdMob AppLovin mediation
implementation 'com.applovin:applovin-sdk:9.15.2'
implementation 'com.google.ads.mediation:applovin:9.15.2.0'

After adding the above dependencies I'm synchronized my gradle and run my project. I'm getting build error after applovin dependencies added.

AGPBI: {"kind":"error","text":"Android resource linking failed","sources":[{"file":"...\build\intermediates\metadata_feature_manifest\adsDebug\metadata-feature\AndroidManifest.xml","position":{"startLine":388,"startColumn":8,"endLine":392,"endColumn":86}}],"original":"...\build\intermediates\metadata_feature_manifest\adsDebug\metadata-feature\AndroidManifest.xml:389:9-393:87: AAPT: error: resource style/com.applovin.mediation.MaxDebuggerActivity.Theme (aka xxxx:style/com.applovin.mediation.MaxDebuggerActivity.Theme) not found.\n ","tool":"AAPT"}

Execution failed for task ':app:processAdsDebugResources'.

A failure occurred while executing com.android.build.gradle.internal.tasks.Workers$ActionFacade Android resource linking failed ...\build\intermediates\metadata_feature_manifest\adsDebug\metadata-feature\AndroidManifest.xml:389:9-393:87: AAPT: error: resource style/com.applovin.mediation.MaxDebuggerActivity.Theme (aka xxxx:style/com.applovin.mediation.MaxDebuggerActivity.Theme) not found.

How to solve this issue?

Not sure if you've resolved this issue yet, but I'd highly recommend switching over to MAX, their docs are straightforward and the product is taking the industry by storm.
