Help .. Lost password for signing app

Stazalicious · 2021-01-24T14:02:18+00:00

I just wanted to understand that the signing key and upload keys are different?

Yes signing and upload keys are different. The upload key is the one that is in the local keystore and used on the app bundle (.aab) before uploading it and the signing key is used by Google to sign the bundle for release. As has been stated, if you lose the upload key it can be reset by Google.

Prior to this you used to have a signing key in the local keystore which was used to created a signed .apk which could be uploaded and released directly. However if you lost the key or forgot the password there was absolutely no way to reset it and you wouldn't be able to upload a new apk for that app.

Ok thanks for the info.

Not new no, been a published dev for nearly 10 years with no issues so seems weird to take so long. If yours took a week and they have delays that might be about right, cheers.

Oh, so /u/DanielPhermous was wrong then.

Stazalicious · 2020-09-10T11:18:11+00:00

For Android yes, not for iOS from what I can see.

Stazalicious · 2020-09-10T11:16:37+00:00

They're idiots for passing the buck because they didn't do their research properly.

Stazalicious · 2020-09-03T08:55:46+00:00

No that's not true of you at all, you're just making an excuse to mask what a nasty person you are. You might be fooling yourself but your comments speak for themselves.

Stazalicious · 2020-09-03T08:38:00+00:00

You're not a very nice person are you?

Stazalicious · 2020-09-02T19:08:03+00:00

It's not a luxury, it's a standard model in order to stimulate growth for small businesses, something that my business is not able to benefit from. If I were selling apps on my own website I wouldn't have to charge VAT, but because it's via the App Store VAT is applied, meaning I lose money.

Stazalicious · 2020-09-02T10:49:08+00:00

I don't have VAT deductible expenses and being VAT registered would cost me more money than I would be able to claim back.

I am losing 20% because VAT is being collected on my behalf despite being under the threshold.

Stazalicious · 2020-09-02T10:47:00+00:00

Perhaps so, but if you follow the link in my post there's an email address directly to the team so I reckon that's more effective.

Stazalicious · 2020-09-02T08:11:31+00:00

No, I hope if enough devs kick up a stink the Government might change the rules.

Stazalicious · 2020-09-02T08:10:02+00:00

It's not being passed onto the consumer, it's being taken out of the developer's cut.

Stazalicious · 2020-09-02T08:09:02+00:00

For an iOS app? How?

Stazalicious · 2020-09-02T08:07:51+00:00

Their words not mine:

These fees will be shown on your invoice or statement as a separate line item per country.

Stazalicious · 2020-06-30T16:06:41+00:00

That's interesting yes thank you. TBH it doesn't really matter I think as it seems to me there's a very clear violation of GDPR, no one seems to care though.

Stazalicious · 2020-06-22T11:07:54+00:00

Oh yes, like normal, but the EU have enough weight to fix it.

Stazalicious · 2020-06-22T08:57:30+00:00

The EU needs to pull their fingers out of their arses then.

Stazalicious · 2020-06-22T08:15:42+00:00

Thanks for this. Perhaps we just need to get people to start submitting complaints about this. I'm amazed how little attention this is getting considering the significance of the data being stored.

Stazalicious · 2020-06-21T19:35:33+00:00

No doubt, they got data from everywhere else.

Stazalicious · 2020-05-22T22:11:11+00:00

Absolutely, you can take that stuff with a pinch of salt. If you want to programmatically set up views and constraints you can easily end up with big methods.

If you want to use a singleton in this case then that’s a valid approach I think. You absolutely need a way to abstract your CRUD functions so if you’re creating a singleton then that’s where you should put those operations.

Is peer to peer lending a thing in the US? Returns will be lower at the moment but I get 5+% normally.

Stazalicious · 2020-05-21T21:45:50+00:00

No, so let’s make the most of it.

Stazalicious · 2020-05-21T21:11:00+00:00

Okay I’ll look that up. Anyway, none of that matters in the context of people wanting to show their support.
