How do I distribute a Tauri app to the Google Play Store?

To distribute a Tauri app to Google Play, you generate signed APK and AAB builds, configure keystore signing, and submit the app bundle through the Play Console. The workflow starts with tauri android init and proper tauri.conf.json settings.

What do I need to sign an Android APK for a Tauri application?

You need a keystore-based signing setup to sign an Android APK for a Tauri application. This involves generating a keystore and configuring your build settings to apply the keystore credentials during the APK and AAB generation process.

Does Tauri support building Android apps for multiple architectures?

Tauri supports building Android apps for multiple architectures. The distribution workflow includes configuring your build settings to target various mobile architectures, ensuring your signed APK and AAB builds are compatible with different Android devices.

What prerequisites are required to publish a Tauri app to Google Play?

Prerequisites to publish a Tauri app to Google Play include a Play Console account, the Android SDK, and a keystore for code signing. You must also configure tauri.conf.json and run tauri android init before generating your AAB.

What is the difference between APK and AAB builds when distributing Android apps?

APK files are used for direct installation, while AAB files are the required format for Google Play Store submission. The Tauri Android distribution workflow details how to generate and sign both formats for your production releases.

Why does my Tauri Android build fail during code signing?

Tauri Android build code signing fails when the keystore configuration is missing or incorrect. You must ensure your keystore credentials are properly applied in your build configuration and that your tauri.conf.json android settings are correctly defined.
