Keystore File
The keystore file uniquely identifies you as the owner of your mobile app. This is required to replace your existing Android app or to transfer your app to another developer.
- SoCast-Generated Keystore: Allow your app to be moved to a different developer in the future. SoCast can create a new keystore file for a one-time fee. A SoCast Client Success Manager will contact you for billing details before proceeding.
- Upload Existing Keystore: Upload a keystore file from a previous developer or one you created yourself. This allows us to replace your existing app from your previous developer.
For further assistance, please contact your SoCast Client Success Manager.
