TWA app crash because of java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Didn't find class "androidx.browser.trusted.LauncherActivity"

Question

I'm currently trying to make a TWA app from a web site I own.

First I created a no activity app with android studio, then imported the library "androidx.browser" in build.gradle.kts (Module:app) as follow:

dependencies {
    implementation("androidx.core:core-ktx:1.12.0")
    implementation("androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.6.1")
    implementation("com.google.android.material:material:1.11.0")
    implementation("androidx.browser:browser:1.4.0")
    testImplementation("junit:junit:4.13.2")
    androidTestImplementation("androidx.test.ext:junit:1.1.5")
    androidTestImplementation("androidx.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.5.1")
}

Then I try to use it in my AndroidManifest.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">

    <application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:dataExtractionRules="@xml/data_extraction_rules"
        android:fullBackupContent="@xml/backup_rules"
        android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:roundIcon="@mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
        android:supportsRtl="true"
        android:theme="@style/Theme.MyHappyApp">


      <activity
        android:name="androidx.browser.trusted.LauncherActivity"
        android:label="${launcherName}"
        android:exported="true">
        <meta-data
          android:name="androidx.browser.trusted.enabled"
          android:value="true" />
        <meta-data
          android:name="androidx.browser.trusted.enabled"
          android:value="${defaultUrl}"/>
        <meta-data
          android:name="asset_statements"
          android:value="${assetStatements}" />

        <intent-filter>
          <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
          <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
        </intent-filter>


        <intent-filter android:autoVerify="true">
          <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW"/>
          <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/>
          <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE"/>
          <data
            android:scheme="https"
            android:host="${hostName}"/>
        </intent-filter>
      </activity>
    </application>
</manifest>

When I try to launch the app the error is:

Does anyone know what is the problem here?

Thank you for your time
