I have already published my app on the playstore with keytore as .apk I am used to. But because of google notice that publishing App as APK will be obsolete in few months to come.

So, in a new upgrade of my app, I wish to upload it as app bundle. So while generating signed App bundle, with my app's keytore, I discovered that it generated the app bundle as (app-release.aab) and exported another key as private_key.pepk So when i revisited playstore console to upload the signed app bundle, I didn't see where to upload private_key.pepk. So, I became worried. Not knowing what to do. I don't want to make a costly mistake. That is why I'm here for you to give me step by step method on how to continue from where I stopped. Thanks for helping me..

EDIT: I clicked create new release and then I clicked on opt in but didn't know which option to choose and proceed Opt in to Play App Signing

Export and upload a key from Android Studio

Export and upload a key from Java keystore

Export and upload a key (not using Java Keystore)

  • Maybe https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44103024/how-to-enable-google-play-app-signing? I made it long ago and forgot details. – CoolMind Mar 25 '21 at 07:44
  • Thanks. The only challenge I have now is how to proceed. Google updated their play console. Your description is not same as what we have currently on the play console. I clicked create new release and then I clicked on opt in but didn't know which option to choose and proceed – Joseph Mar 25 '21 at 08:05

  • Click the first option "Export and upload a key from Android Studio" then upload the private_key.pepk. – Pierre Mar 26 '21 at 10:18
  • Ok Thanks for your prompt guide – Joseph Mar 27 '21 at 01:12
  • After I have uploaded the private key, How do I upload the Android studio signed APK? – Joseph Mar 27 '21 at 01:14
