If you don’t want to use ReLinker in your app, you can disable it by excluding the transitive Gradle dependency inside your `build.gradle`. Nutrient will detect that ReLinker is no longer present, and it’ll fall back to the default `System.loadLibrary` call:

```groovy

dependencies {
    implementation('io.nutrient:nutrient:11.4.0') {
        exclude group: 'com.getkeepsafe.relinker', module: 'relinker'
    }
}

```

Deactivate ReLinker at your own risk, as this may cause unwanted app crashes on some devices.
