Can't update game in Google Play. Probably keystore problems
Hello.
When I created my first app for Android, I knew nothing about keystore. So my game was built with default unsigned(debug) signing.
As I realise now, Developer Console shouldn't allow to publish APK's with debug.keystore. But that day the app was somehow published. I was even able to update my app several times with the APK's that have the same debug.keystore.
But from today I'm no longer able to update apps. When I upload new APK, the "You uploaded an APK that was signed in debug mode. You need to sign your APK in release mode error" error appeared.
At first I thought that there's something wrong with my new versions. But when I tried to upload the old APK (actually the same APK's, that were already published), the same error occured! So I understood that the problem is not with my APK's. Something changed in Developer Console. 2 days ago It allowed me to publish APK with debug.keystore and now doesn't
So the main questions are:
1) Why Developer console allowed me to publish APK's that have debug.keystore? 2) Why from today it stopped allowing it? 3) What should I do to be able to update my app again?
And if I create new keystore, APK could not be uploaded to Developer Console, because new keys doesn't match with old
