Android - How to make a non-debug .apk file?

Tags:

android

apk

I have been using Eclipse to compile and run my development Android app.

Now I tried to submit my app for the first time to the google store, and it said I need to make a non-debug version of the .apk file.

How do I do that? :)

Thanks!

How do I make an APK file on my Android?

In the Android menu, go to Build > Build Bundle(s) / APK (s) > Build APK(s). Android Studio will start building the APK for you. Once done, a pop-up on the bottom right will notify you of its completion.

What is the difference between debug and release APK?

Major differences are the debug apk and the release apk: For debug builds the apk will be signed with the default debug signing keys with debug flag enabled. For release apk you will have to explicitly specify the apk to sign with and the debug flag will be turned off so that it cannot be debugged.

Right click on your app and then go to Android Tools > export unsigned application package, and then you have to sign that package using the instructions here: http://developer.android.com/guide/publishing/app-signing.html
