Publishing KoBoToolbox apk to playstore

Question

I am new to kobotoolBox, I was required to add some changes to kobotoolBox project. I have successfully run the project in android studio and have applied changes and now need to publish that. I want to ask that I have cloned this project from GitHub means it has the same package name with which already an APK is published on play-store. What should I do to publish APK that I have created. Should I need to change the package name or there is another alternative way aside from changing package name??

Publishing is the general process that makes your Android applications available to users. When you publish an Android application you perform two main tasks:

1. You prepare the application for release.

   During the preparation step you build a release version of your application, which users can download and install on their Android-powered devices.

2. You release the application to users.

   During the release step you publicize, sell, and distribute the release version of your application to users.
