Release Guide

Google Play Signing

When you are ready to publish, use Play App Signing:

1. Create a Play Console account and an app entry.
2. In Release > Setup > App integrity, enable Play App Signing.
3. Use your existing release keystore as the upload key (or generate a new upload key if you prefer).
4. Build a signed release APK/AAB locally (./gradlew assembleRelease or ./gradlew bundleRelease).
5. Upload the signed artifact in the Play Console.

Notes:

• Keep your keystore backed up; you will need it to sign future uploads.
• Play will manage the app signing key once enabled.
