Migration : Play App Signing configuration

With Play App Signing, Google manages and protects the application's signing key on your behalf, and uses it to sign your APK's before their distribution. (mandatory in August 2021)

Warning

Google regularly does aesthetical, navigation or formulation updates. Hence, the following process may not be totally exact.

In order to avoid any mistakes, we ask you to pay attention to the following points :

• The screenshots compared to your browser in order to see if an element might have been moved or hidden in a drop-down list for example.

• The formulation of the sentences on the screenshots and on your browser, some titles, section or paragraph names may have been modified to be more explicit.

In the case that this process is not up to date or "broken", please stop the latter and contact us as soon as possible.
