right click on project select export export as android application create a new key store...and so on...its easy the key you create is very important(it is a small file (2kb)file with a password) just back up it ...you will need the same key for updates.. even if you forget password ..then you cannot make updates for the app.

hi dude, ive done all the above, then i get this error in play, ive checked and there is a androidmanifest.xml, any idea what im doing wrong Your APK cannot be analyzed using 'aapt dump badging'. Error output: Failed to run aapt dump badging: ERROR: dump failed because no AndroidManifest.xml found

Hi Delite Like many of these essential tasks, there are 'How To' tutorials - just click on 'How To' in the top menu bar. For this particular task, GoNorthWest has produced this excellent How To document. https://www.buzztouch.com/files/howtos/Signing_Android_Apps_v1.0.pdf It is a bit of a tricky process, but follow the document and you will get there. Good luck
