Do you want Google to generate a new app signing key?

Do you want to provide your own app signing key?

Please generate a new upload key and attach a .pem file along with submitting the form.

Here’s how:

Follow the instructions in the Android Studio Help Center to generate a new key. It must be different from any previous keys. Alternatively, you can use the following command line to generate a new key:

keytool -genkeypair -alias upload -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -validity 9125 -keystore keystore.jks (*This key must be a 2048 bit RSA key and have 25-year validity.)

Export the certificate for that key to PEM format:

keytool -export -rfc -alias upload -file upload_certificate.pem -keystore keystore.jks

Please specify: *

You've confirmed the app is not enrolled in app signing by Google Play and you lost your keystore.

This means our team cannot assist in resetting your key.

You'll have to publish a new app with a new package name and a new key. You should also update the description of the original app and unpublish it. Please note that we do not support the deletion of apps or the re-use of package names.

Submit a ticket below only if you have further questions about keystore.
