I'm sorry! More info:

Kotlin 1.3.5.0

lifecyle = 2.2.0-rc02

implementation "androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-viewmodel-ktx:${versions.lifecycle}"
implementation "androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-extensions:${versions.lifecycle}"
implementation "androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-common-java8:${versions.lifecycle}"

class VideoModel(val app: Application) : AndroidViewModel(app) {
   // do something
}

https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/support/+/refs/heads/androidx-activity-release/lifecycle/lifecycle-viewmodel-ktx/build.gradle#37

This is lifecyle-viewmodel-kts build dependency, where lifecycle-viewmodel is added (as API).

https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/support/+/refs/heads/androidx-master-dev/lifecycle/lifecycle-viewmodel/build.gradle#34

This is lifecycle-viewmodel build, and there proguard rule is applied to all build types.

https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/support/+/refs/heads/androidx-master-dev/lifecycle/lifecycle-viewmodel/proguard-rules.pro

and finally, this is the configuration:
```
-keepclassmembers,allowobfuscation class * extends androidx.lifecycle.AndroidViewModel {
    <init>(android.app.Application);
}
```

Because of that rule, at least instance initializer of your class that extends AndroidViewModel would be kept as long as that class itself is used/kept somehow. That's one notable difference between `-keepclassmemebers` v.s. other keep directives such as `-keep` or `-keepclasseswithmembers`. https://www.guardsquare.com/en/products/proguard/manual/usage#keepclassmembers

But those rules are coming from the library, so I assume it's been there for a while (though you're using lifecycle 2.2.0-rc02, is it something you recently upgraded?) Then, the difference we should track is why `VideoModel` was kept at AGP 3.5.2 and is not now at AGP 3.6.0-beta04.

Could you add the following rule to your `proguard-rules.pro` and build your app again with AGP 3.5.2?

```
-whyareyoukeeping class **.VideoModel
```

To make sure rules from lifecycle-viewmodel is included as well, could you also add the following to literally print all configurations?
```
-printconfiguration all-configurations.txt
```
If you think it reveals too much details of your apps, you can send it to jsjeon@google.com privately, instead of posting it here. Thanks.

Thank you!

I added printconfiguration all-configurations.txt then compare on AS all-configurations-3.5.2.txt vs all-configurations-3.6.0-beta04.txt. Proguard config of ViewModel was consumed.

The different:

 all-configurations-3.6.0-beta04.txt
# When editing this file, update the following files as well:
# - META-INF/com.android.tools/proguard/coroutines.pro
# - META-INF/proguard/coroutines.pro

all-configurations-3.5.2.txt
# Files in this directory will be ignored starting with Android Gradle Plugin 3.6.0+

# When editing this file, update the following files as well for AGP 3.6.0+:
# - META-INF/com.android.tools/proguard/coroutines.pro
# - META-INF/com.android.tools/r8-upto-1.6.0/coroutines.pro



and all-configurations-3.6.0-beta04.txt missed that was added in all-configurations-3.5.2.txt.
This the part missing:

# This is a configuration file for ProGuard.
# http://proguard.sourceforge.net/index.html#manual/usage.html
#
# Starting with version 2.2 of the Android plugin for Gradle, this file is distributed together with
# the plugin and unpacked at build-time. The files in $ANDROID_HOME are no longer maintained and
# will be ignored by new version of the Android plugin for Gradle.

# Optimization is turned off by default. Dex does not like code run
# through the ProGuard optimize steps (and performs some
# of these optimizations on its own).
# Note that if you want to enable optimization, you cannot just
# include optimization flags in your own project configuration file;
# instead you will need to point to the
# "proguard-android-optimize.txt" file instead of this one from your
# project.properties file.

I have another project that has the same config but it hadn't the problem with AGP 3.6.0-beta04. I will try to investigate more.

I think it can the same this problem before: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/112324130
