How to add 'libs' folder in Android Studio?

AndroidAndroid StudioDirectoryLibs

Android Problem Overview

I need help in creating the 'libs' folder in Android Studio for my project (It is not auto-generated in my project).

When I want to create a folder, it gives me lots of options, like AIDL, Assets, JNI, Java, Java Resources, Renderscripts, and 'res' folders. I chose Res and added a libs folder but it didn't show up on my file structure on the left.

Can anyone help me?

I wanted to add a JAR file but I can't find libs to put in.

The solution for me was very simple (after 10 hours of searching). Above where your folders are there is a combobox that says "android" click it and choose "Project".

Solution 3 - Android

libs and Assets folder in Android Studio:

Create libs folder inside app folder and Asset folder inside main in the project directory by exploring project directory.

Now come back to Android Studio and switch the combo box from Android to Project. enjoy...

Solution 4 - Android

Another strange thing. You wont see the libs folder in Android Studio, unless you have at least 1 file in the folder. So, I had to go to the libs folder using File Explorer, and then place the jar file there. Then, it showed up in Android Studio.
