How to Determine Android Studio Gradle Version

If you are using Android Studio and want to know what Gradle version you have been using with it, then you can follow one of the below options.

Option 1: Using Module Settings

1) Right Click on the project/module folder in your Android Studio IDE and click on "Open Module Settings"

2) Now go to the Project tab, here you will see the "Android Gradle Plugin Version" and the "Gradle Version"



You can even change the Gradle version using the dropdown.

Option 2: Using the gradle-wrapper.properties file

1) Open the Gradle Scripts folder under your App Module in Android Studio IDE.

2) Now, click on gradle-wrapper.properties and look for distributionUrl value.

Example:

distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-8.0-bin.zip

3) Looking at this value, you know that the Gradle version here is 8.0

Using the Terminal in Android Studio

1) Open Terminal in Android Studio by going to Menu: View -> Tool Window -> Terminal

2) Now type ./gradlew --version and you will know the Gradle Build version details.

macOS % ./gradlew --version

Welcome to Gradle 8.0!
