I had a problem where the the vector assigned to an ImageView and it crashed on an odder device.

Problem

The problem is the vector is assigned to the android:background or android:src. Because the old system api level is not compatible with the vector source.

Solution

Assign the vector drawable resource to app:srcCompat.

<ImageView
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_gravity="center_vertical|end"
    android:layout_marginEnd="20dp"
    app:srcCompat="@drawable/ic_arrow_right_black_24dp" />
