summary
Explains that app identity hinges on APK signatures not package names and shows concrete failures: lost keystore blocks updates, debug keystore password is well known, certificate pinning breaks when a client rotates certs, and Google offers Google Play app signing with an upload key that can be revoked. Demos and tools cited: zipalign and apksigner, certificate chains and Let's Encrypt, HSMs with multi‑person tokens and hardware security module storage, validity >=25 years, API fragmentation (latest API on ~1.1% of devices) and upcoming key rotation.
