I'm trying to sign my app and I'm generating a key to sign.

There is some info that I should enter in order to generate a key.(certificate field)

What this info is about and why do we need this?

Can I reset my password or even REGENERATE new key if I remember this info? So I can sign the the app with new generated key and send it to existing listing in Google Play

  • @IntelliJAmiya yes, but the only info I've found there is Certificate: Enter some information about yourself for your certificate. This information is not displayed in your app, but is included in your certificate as part of the APK. – nutella_eater Nov 13 '19 at 09:30

  • @GeraldTDPI no it is not. What I'm asking, why do we need certificate credentials entered and are they important. – nutella_eater Nov 13 '19 at 09:37

"All applications must be signed. The system will not install an application on an emulator or a device if it is not signed"

And i think that's why its important :))
