Add the last version of the butterknive dependency you can check it here if it changes (https://github.com/JakeWharton/butterknife). It supports androidX. Then go to your app build graddle and replace the old version with the following:

dependencies {
implementation 'com.jakewharton:butterknife:10.0.0'
annotationProcessor 'com.jakewharton:butterknife-compiler:10.0.0'
}
