Please select at least one of the signature versions to use in Android Studio 2.3 [duplicate]

Question

I have recently updated my Android Studio to version 2.3.3. When trying to Generate Signed APK I am getting the error message:

Please select at least one of the signature versions to use

There are two options: V1 (Jar Signature) and V2 (Full APK Signature). I am not sure which one to choose. And what are the merits of choosing one over the other or choosing both?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Answer 1

Mark both Jar and Full Apk, this should give you a play store publishable signed apk.

I tried Full Apk Sign the first time but Publish Console did not accept that, selecting both options worked for me
