So far nobody has provided the solution to get the APK from an AAB.
This solution will generate a universal binary as an apk.
Add
--mode=universal
to yourbundletool
command (if you need a signed app, use the --ks parameters as required).MAIN STEP: Change the output file name from
.apks
to.zip
Unzip and explore
The file
universal.apk
is your appThis universal binary will likely be quite big but is a great solution for sending to the QA department or distributing the App anywhere other than the Google Play store.
