We did flutter version up from 1.00 to 1.7.8, before we created signed apk file by flutter build apk --flavor production it will generate signed apk file automatically.

But after we upgrade it to 1.7.8 I tried 

flutter build appbundle --flavor production

when I upload it to google play store , it says my app is not signed.

Is there anything else I should do when I try to generate aab file instead of apk file?

I kept the setting like before

 signingConfigs {
        release {
            keyAlias keystoreProperties['keyAlias']
            keyPassword keystoreProperties['keyPassword']
            storeFile file(keystoreProperties['storeFile'])
            storePassword keystoreProperties['storePassword']
        }
    }
buildTypes {
        release {
            // TODO: Add your own signing config for the release build.
            // Signing with the debug keys for now, so `flutter run --release` works.
            signingConfig signingConfigs.release
        }
    }

I have a file named key.properties to store the value for signingConfig

  • Try to create your app via terminal: https://stackoverflow.com/a/60699042/3894304 This will make many things automatically for you. – Marcel Hofgesang Mar 17 '20 at 16:04

For uploading aab to Google play, you have to first enroll for app signing by Google Play.

Check for details here: https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/answer/7384423

Reference: https://developer.android.com/guide/app-bundle/

  1. Enroll into app signing by Google Play. Otherwise, you can't upload your app bundle to the Play Console.

  • Even though we released this app before, apk file release is different from aab file release? – Carrie Nov 15 '19 at 10:08
  • No issues, You can still Opt into app signing by Google Play. Check the link which I shared, and see Opt into app signing by Google Play, existing app section. – Milind Mevada Nov 15 '19 at 10:10
  • When using aab, APK files would be generated via bundle tools, So it's not signed by default. But, Google play signing takes care of that – Milind Mevada Nov 15 '19 at 10:12

    oh, thank you so much, seems we need to enroll for app signing, because release is handled by other team, so we don't know the procedure. Thank you! – Carrie Nov 15 '19 at 10:19
