Over folder project execute: $ capacitor update android
On Android Studio execute: File -> Sync Project with Gradle Files

This is what solved it for me: I'm using next/JS and I export it. So the build folder is not "build", it is "out".

Just go to the capacitor.config.json and change the webDir property to out
