How to sign a APK file

[KillerSneak]

Step By Step

It’s quite easy.

Making a key.

keytool -genkey -v -keystore C:\Users*YourUserName**YourAppName*.keystore -alias YourAppName -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -validity 10000

Change YOURUSERNAME to your windows username
Change YOURAPPNAME to your app/game name

Then in

C:\Users*YourUserName*\Documents\Unreal Projects*YourAppName*\Build\Android

open the file **SigningConfig.xml

**

<keyalias>Same as key alias above so YourAppName</keyalias>
<keystore>full path to keystore file from above - C:\Users*YourUserName**YourAppName*.keystore</keystore>
<keystorepassword>made above during the generation of your key</keystorepassword>
<keypassword>sameaskeystore</keypassword>

This is it. This way you will sign your APK file so you can upload it to the Google Play Store and it will be signed. Ill update this topic to add some screenshots of the process with the above you should be able to sign your APK file.

**To read your keyfile:
**

keytool -list -v -keystore C:\Users*YourUserName**YourAppName*.keystore
