Answer 1

android-apt and hence using apt has been deprecated since Android Studio 2.2.
Following the android-apt migration guide, instead add the following to your build.gradle:

dependencies {
    classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.3.0' // use same gradle version!
    annotationProcessor 'com.android.databinding:compiler:2.3.0'
}

If you are using Kolin, instead use:

apply plugin: 'kotlin-kapt'

dependencies {
    classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.3.0' // use same gradle version!
    kapt 'com.android.databinding:compiler:2.3.0'
}
