When I try to add a library to my Android Studio project they are all the latest alpha version instead of the current release version. It won't let me install non-alpha versions either via their direct name.

You check it in the internet then paste on your build.gradle file :) – Bui Quang Huy Mar 18 '16 at 02:43

I don't understand. It's a setting in my build.gradle file that set this alpha choice? – Angel Mar 18 '16 at 02:44

Open your build.gradle file (Module:app) and you will see something like this
Then you can find name of that library like by type name of this library + "dependency" word in the Google, choose the version you want and paste it in this file like: compile "your version you want"
I think this page will helpful with you: http://mvnrepository.com/ .Type name of your library, choose version and select in Gradle format.

1Thank you but this doesn't fully answer my question. I want to add the library from inside Android Studio like the screenshot above shows. – Angel Mar 18 '16 at 03:18

Yes you can add it manually in the build.gradle. However I came here after having to manually add it also and wondering how you can simply use the File > Project Structure... Modules app | Dependencies tab > + button > Library Dependency without seeing the alpha only listings. Is there a way or not get a listing that is not alpha?

1It would seem that Android Studio gives you the latest version, alpha included, at the time and if you want a specific version I think the above is the only way to do it. When I ran into trouble with this I checked on another system and the only offered libraries were also alpha. I'm curious as to what decides which libraries are displayed. – Angel Mar 29 '16 at 19:29
