'Sketchware - Issues Publishing to Play Store
Using the Sketchware app and Android, I am trying to export to the Google Play store, I have to select the .json for the service account to allow it to publish the app.
However, when I try to select the .json file I have downloaded to my phone, I navigate to the directory the .json file is stored in then when I try to click on it, it is greyed out and I cannot click on it.
(P.S.: I have tried contacting Sketchware support. However, it has been over three days now and I understand due to coronavirus the response may be delayed, but I thought I would ask here if anyone has a solution.)
Solution 1:[1]
Why are you publishing the app directly from Sketchware to PlayStore?
You better sign the apk usin APK SIGNER app and manually upload the APK to the Play Console.

I have never used Google Play Console before, but I think this could help you:
- Download your app
- Using Apk Extractor (play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ext.ui) is a software that will help you to get APK file from an pre installed app from Android ONLY. Using this software you can actually get an APK or Android Package that you can use while publishing app
There are many application available on Google Play that can convert your app file to AAB format.

Yes, download Apk editor and select generic key or test key (try them out, there's a few) in settings in the app, and edit the API version to the correct number. And set up a Google Play console account.
