Step 1: Post the actual error message, not a screenshot.
What is your ionic info output?
What does ionic cordova requirements return?

I am not sure what is going wrong here, cordova requirements says I have installed everything for android. ionic info says there is no ANDROID_HOME set, I think that is my problem. I’ve tried to fix this but couldn’t find how. Can anyone help me?
Your cordova-android is too old, install a newer one that might work with the Android Studio and Android SDKs you have installed.
Also run the failing command with --verbose please and post the output.
By the way:
Please edit your post, it is not very readable at the moment.
Use the </> button above the input field to format your code, command line output or error message (select the text first, then click the button or wrap it in ``` manually). Check the preview if it looks better. This will make sure your text is readable and if it recognizes the programming language it also automatically adds code syntax highlighting. Thanks.
created a new project, I have cordova@android7.0.0 now.

I really don’t know what to do now. it says please install Android Studio… I have that installed. with the check it also says it has detected android studio
it says something about gradle, I am not sure how to install this plugin. if I do does that solve it?
Don’t know if it’s your problem, but if that could help. I faced the same error msg when I was upgrading from cordova-android 7 to 8.
I did update all my android libs and installed the last version of gradle, but it turned out that I had also a custom local hook which I did forgot to update (cordova-android 8 introduce the subfolder src which I didn’t reflected in my hook)
So, if you have custom hooks, try to disable them one after the other to find out wich one may produce the problem.
maybe a stupid question, but how do I install gradle? It says I need to include it but I am not sure how to install in into my project
P.S.: Not a silly question, I didn’t knew too. @Sujan12 answered one of my question once and it’s how I knew I had to install it
P.P.S.: If I remember correctly, before Android Studio < 3 you didn’t had to install a local Gradle but when they upgraded to 3, an installation of Gradle became mandatory…like I said, if I remember correctly
You do remember correctly @reedrichards 
Google is moving stuff around with each Android release and Cordova is trying hard to keep up.

I am lost now… can anyone supply me with a full guide on how to install everything I need to upload an app the the google play store. I am on a MacBook as extra information. I have created a beautiful app and I can test it with ionic dev app no problem. Just can’t seem to get it in an apk…
Go to https://gradle.org/install/, download, install.
thanks! one more question, how can I make my APK smaller? it needs to be under 100MB. any tips?
Create a new topic for that question please.
Good morning,
Regarding the Error: spawn EACCESS I found something here
I ran the following command:
sudo chmod 777 “/Applications/Android Studio.app/Contents/gradle/gradle-4.1/bin/gradle”
No spawn EACCESS anymore.
