Modern App Distribution on Google Play

on YouTube ↗42m

" summary

Google Play moves new apps to Android App Bundles next year and requires opting into Play App Signing so Play holds the signing key (generated keys cannot be downloaded). Use the PEPK tool to upload existing keys or create a separate upload key that can be reset if leaked. Bundles let Play generate device-optimized APKs, enable Play Feature Delivery and Play Asset Delivery, and average about 50% size savings for published apps.
