# Multiple Kotlin Frameworks in an Application

**[Touchlab](https://daily.dev/sources/touchlab)** · 7 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Kotlin 1.3.70 introduced support for multiple Kotlin/Native frameworks in a single iOS application, resolving a previous limitation where only one dynamic framework was allowed. Testing reveals that dynamic frameworks work across all build configurations, while two debug static frameworks fail at runtime with a 'runtime injected twice' error. Naming conflicts between frameworks are manageable by qualifying class names with their framework prefix. However, passing custom objects between frameworks does not work — only primitive types and built-in Swift/Obj-C types like String, Bool, and collections of compatible types are interchangeable. The practical recommendation is to keep Kotlin iOS frameworks minimal, as shared dependencies between frameworks are not binary-compatible.
