I'm stuck when i try to use android-image-cropper:2.8.+

Question

When i add to this line implementation 'com.theartofdev.edmodo:android-image-cropper:2.8.+' in my dependency it cause error

* my error *

Manifest merger failed : Attribute application@appComponentFactory value=(android.support.v4.app.CoreComponentFactory) from [com.android.support:support-compat:28.0.0] AndroidManifest.xml:22:18-91
    is also present at [androidx.core:core:1.0.0] AndroidManifest.xml:22:18-86 value=(androidx.core.app.CoreComponentFactory).
    Suggestion: add 'tools:replace="android:appComponentFactory"' to <application> element at AndroidManifest.xml:8:5-25:19 to override.

And

implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0'

this line become red line

I think the problem is reason of version

How can I avoid that clash?

I already try to change version and add code in manifest

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<usespermissionandroid:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>

but it didn't work

This is my manifest

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

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>

    <application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:roundIcon="@mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
        android:supportsRtl="true"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme">
        <activity android:name=".Activities.LoginActivity">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
        <activity android:name=".Activities.RegisterActivity" />
        <activity android:name=".Activities.PostActivity" />
        <activity android:name=".Activities.HomeActivity" />
    </application>

</manifest>

This is my dependency

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

    android {
    compileSdkVersion 28
    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.example.blogapp"
        minSdkVersion 19
        targetSdkVersion 28
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
        testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android-optimize.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'

        }
    }

I hope use this imageCropper no trouble in my dependency https://github.com/ArthurHub/Android-Image-Cropper

I have handled this issue by importing this library as module and replacing dependencies from

dependencies {
api "androidx.appcompat:appcompat:$androidXLibraryVersion"
implementation "androidx.exifinterface:exifinterface:$androidXLibraryVersion"
}

to

dependencies {
api "com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0"
implementation "com.android.support:exifinterface:28.0.0"
}

And updating imports in all files of library
