Should I update the Kotlin version of the Android app?

ext {
        espresso_version = '3.0.2'
        gradle_version = '3.1.4'
        kotlin_version = '1.2.60'
        support_v4_version = '27.1.1'
        support_test_version = '1.0.2'
        gson_version = '2.8.0'
        junit_version = '4.12'
        powermock_version = '1.6.6'
        rxandroid_version = '1.2.1'
        rxjava_version = '1.1.6'
        rxkotlin_version = '0.60.0'
        mp_android_chart_version = 'v2.2.4'
        multidex = '1.0.3'
    }

Customers have told me several times over the past few days that the application is getting slower. There are many, but the Kotlin version is the first one that comes to mind. Although I know that it conflicts with other libraries, is it worth it?

Does kotlin version affects performance???? 🫣

It does not directly affect performance. But I think there will be more solutions when I upgrade the version like coroutine.
