How to add asset and sign aab file
1) How to add asset in abb file
Download your abb from kodular
Open your aab file with Winrar or 7-zip
Now go to base>assets>here paste your file
In my case i add text file in my asset
Now your aab file is ready for signing
How to sign aab file
Currently This method in works in android only or use emulator
requirements for signing - you need the keystore of your app and need the aabsigner.apk
2) How to get keystore and sign the aab
go to Kodular creator open your project and go to preferences and export your key store
Open the aab signer and now you need to register your key

Hi @Shreyaa ,
Are you able to make a guide on how to change the target sdk for an AAB and then sign it? I think all you have to do is extract the base APK, use ApkTool to change the target sdk, build the base APK, sign the base APK (I think), add the base APK back to the AAB, then resign the AAB. It seems like an exhaustive process, but it isn’t.
Sincerely,
– Nathan

Signing with my key only.
Moreover, key difference error is different.
I added Part 2 on how to sign AABs to my video tutorial.
It takes less than 1 minute to insert large files into the assets and sign the AAB .
Steps to build a big app for
APK → max. 100 MB or
AAB → max. 150 MB (new, added on Aug 31, 2021)
1. APK (Note: apps that were released before Aug 1, 2021 can still use APKs !)
You can use e.g. APK Editor Studio for that.
First download the keystore “android.keystore” from your Kodular account and rename it to: “android.ks”
remove some big files (png, jpg, mp3, wav, …) from the assets (AIA < 20 MB, better < 5 MB)
build APK
decompile APK
(re)insert the missing files to the assets
