Extract Keystore from APK
Budget: ₹600 – ₹1,500 INR
I need to push an update to an Android app that is already live on Google Play, but I no longer have the original keystore. There is no backup and I don’t know the alias or password, yet the Play Console still requires the exact same signing key.
You’ll receive the current production APK (the one now in the store) and any other artefacts you request that I can still access. Your task is to recover the keystore file key used to sign that APK—or provide a proven, Google-accepted workaround (such as key rotation) that lets me submit future releases under the same package name without forcing users to reinstall.
Deliverables (all must be met):
• A .jks or .keystore that matches the existing certificate, complete with working alias and password, OR a verified alternative process that Google accepts for updating the app.
• Clear, step-by-step instructions so I can replicate the signing for every future build.
