How to build a big app → APK max. 100 MB or → AAB 150 MB

Kindly Need help in Signing my AAB

after signing I get this message
Warning:
The signer’s certificate is self-signed.

and After uploading the AAB [an update for my already published app] I get this message and not uploaded
Your Android App Bundle has an invalid signature. Upload again with a valid signature.

although I did all the steps in the video

thanks in advance

You need to sign aab with your keystore

I did the signing … but that was the result … I followed the instructions and get a signed aab … but still giving me this result

Did you publish your original app as an APK?
If so, stick with it and also use an APK for the update.

Do you mean that the already published apps that used APK can keep publishing updates using APK and not AAB even after 1 november as google mentioned before… and only the newly pubished apps must use AAB?

if so … that would be great news

Yes, exactly.

My project around 200mb, is it possible to do with this way? I won’t put on google play, I will install app directly to the my phone and to my few friends?

Yes, that should work.
But why don’t you just give it a try?

I’ll try now. Because I add 70 Images to assets and mostly used same image 3-4 times on different component. Now I will change all of one by one. Also I want to do like, I will use low quality image on the app screen(80x80pixel image) and add high quality image with apk editor, so when I use the app for share photos, it should share high quality images. It will work like this, right?

Yes, but there is no need to replace the large images with small ones beforehand, as long as the images are accessed by blocks. These can be completely removed and reinserted after decompiling. That’s all.

It didn’t work. I’ve tried apk and aab and both showed sign error. Also I tried just put 2 images so size won’t be big(around 15-20mb total apk size), but it didn’t work either. I searched solution for signing but couldn’t find. Do you have any idea about it? 1.screenshot for apk, 2. for aab


There is something wrong with your APK regarding minSdkVersion.
Go to your Project Settings and check …

I need the download link of aab signer … please

Find link in this post. It also has a tutorial video link with it.

@bodymindpower, excellent tutorial… Congratulations. It helped me a lot, thanks.

This video already works? I have tried it, but when I installed the .apk the aplication don’t recognize the file.

it can be acessed the same way you added them by decompile the apk unless the assests is obfuscated but i dont believe kodular support that

Yes, but since all of my apps are paid apps and they are only offered in the Play Store, it is difficult to get the APK.

hello all can you give another tutorial how to build big apps

thanks all
