Android App Test

I tested my app and worked fine on my Android phone but love to have a few others to test and feedback before I release. Thank you in advance. https://dl.dropbox.com/u/105249749/APP/com.addisabilityhealthemergency.BT_activity_root.apk

Simple but nice looking and informative app. I tested it on my Samsung Galaxy S os version 2.3.6. It works fine. All the best for this app.

Thank you and glad it worked...now when I release to store, I have my two unique keys that google gave me in another app so do I just paste them in the strings then it will be signed?

You mean the maps api key? Well your app has no function which uses map. So it is not necessary to add the map api key in the strings file. All you need is the keystore that you have created which you will need at the time of signing the application for release.

I have a keystore unique id google gave me? Only keystore would be the default but then thats not mine. Here is the part I'm lost and i followed every guide and followed the five minute vid which I finally got but I have no keystore google just gave me two keys and the layout for the maps which I copied everything in word.

Ok the keys you got from google are not the keystore. I think that they most probably are map api keys. Follow the instructions given in the following link to create a keystore. Once you have a keystore you are pretty much ready to release your app. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/42553454/MySkylla's%20Guide/Articles/Buzztouch_Process.html#five

Default keystore is not useful for releasing apps on google play store. You will have to sign the app with your keystore. Its your identity and remember to keep it in a safe place and at myltiple locations like on dropbox, pc, laptop. You will need it all the times whenever u update new version of your app and you can use the same key store for all the apps you publish.
