I tried to add

    implementation(project(":react-native-store-review")) {
        exclude group: 'com.google.android.play', module: 'core-common'
        exclude group: 'com.google.android.play', module: 'review'
    }

in app/build.gradle but while it compiles, it then crash at runtime saying there is no interface method.

doing a bit more googling, seem this issue has arise in the past already: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/74692599/duplicate-class-in-com-google-android-play-core-in-common-and-review-modules

It seems you have another library that is using an older version of com.google.android.play:core, I noticed that in your galoy-mobile project you are using another review library with a comment linking to an issue with more or less the same problem as noted here. Could you figure out which dependency is using the old version of the core module and try to update it?

I would also make sure that you've deleted react-native-rate and yarned first.
