Why does Google Play reject my Godot Android signed APK/AAB?

The keystore used doesn't match the one Play has on file for this package name. Verify SHA-256 fingerprint matches via keytool -list -v -keystore. Different keystore = upload rejected.

Where do I set keystore in Godot?

Editor → Editor Settings → Export → Android → Debug/Release Keystore. Use absolute path. Some platforms reject relative paths during export.

Without it you can't update the app on Play. Use Play App Signing if enabled (Google holds the upload key). Otherwise, app must be re-published as a new package name.

Fix: Godot Android Keystore Mismatch

Quick answer: Editor Settings → Android → absolute path to release keystore. Verify fingerprint via keytool -list -v -keystore release.keystore.

Play Console: “You uploaded a bundle that is signed with a different signing key.” Same package name, different keystore.

The Fix

# Verify fingerprint matches Play Console
$ keytool -list -v -keystore /path/release.keystore -alias myalias

# Editor Settings (Godot)
Export → Android:
  Debug Keystore:        /home/user/keys/debug.keystore
  Debug Keystore User:   androiddebugkey
  Debug Keystore Pass:   android
  Release Keystore:      /home/user/keys/release.keystore
  Release Keystore User: myalias
  Release Keystore Pass: ********

SHA-256 from keytool must match Play Console → App integrity → signing key. If different, you have the wrong file (or recreated the keystore by mistake).

Verifying

Re-export AAB. Upload. Play accepts the bundle. Without matching keystore: rejected immediately.

“Same fingerprint. Absolute path. Play accepts.”
