Is it a bad idea to use SQLite instead of Room for an Android app in 2021?

Hello.
I am making an Android app and I need to store data. It is pretty simple, to be honest, just some primitive types and maybe even some arrays/arraylists. I have already worked with SQLite previously, but back then I was using Java as the programming language, right now I am learning Kotlin.
I tried working with Room but I really get confused, that is why I considered to switch back to SQLite. Fortunately, I have not stored any data or released any version of my app, because I want to make my decision first.
Is there any advantage of Room over SQLite? What would you recommend me to do?
