Please, can you add xml code for more information. Providing only stack trace is not very helpful in this case — zulu_papa, Feb 25 '20 at 10:11

As seen from tag from your question, I assume that you are trying to create and app widget layout using constraint layout. Unfortunately it's not possible. Please look at the documentation
