Personal talk!

I’m starting to program through Android Studio, but after the last update the application I developed presented a number of errors and trying to correct these errors I believe that have more messed up than helped. As I had already published this application in the Play Store, I wonder if you have how to start a new project and replace the application already published.

google-play

Yes, you can do this but have two requirements:

  • It has to be the same package as the previous project, the package is used as the identifier of your app, so if it changes google play will understand that it is a different app.
  • You have to use the same certificate to sign the app, that is when you build the project you have to use the same certificate you used before. Carefully save the certificate because if you lose it will not be possible to send app updates to the store.

Keep in mind that for you will be a different app but if follow these rules for google play will be just an update of the app
