I have build an android release .apk file, using buildozer and colab.

In Android Studio I have compiled the signed .aab file.

The app installs successfully, but when running the .aab I get the ' error default launching activity not found'.

I then add the ‘launcher’ code to the AndroidManifest.xml :

Now I’m stuck because the Android name(=package name) is underlined in red (Lint_underline) and the comment(error)  says: Class referenced in the manifest (“package name”) was not found in the project or the libraries.

The Gradle build files all show the same package name.

Two questions:

1. am I on the right track or is it not going to work at all because of ‘e.g. buildozer or colab’

2. any idea what is wrong (I’ve been at it for 3 weeks!)

Thank you for any help you can provide.

Regards

1) I'm not a Colab user, but lots of people run Buildozer in Colab

2) No clue.

a) Can you can install and run your apk without convertion to aab?

b) Here are some instructions for building an aab https://github.com/Android-for-Python/Android-for-Python-Users#release-builds , there are references to signing instructions in that link.

Thank you Robert,

a)       yes I can run the .apk

b)      and thanks for the pointers. I may have to go the python for android way if I don’t succeed.

Regards
