Now we will update the Version Code and Version name. 


For updating the version code, you should check your last release app version code in Google play store. And in the app you need to increase the version code number. Your app version code should greater than google play store app version code.Otherwise google play store will not allow you to update your app.


I see my most recent release app version was 8 and version code 8.1, So I will increase one number and will write it version code 9 and version name 9.1.


Now click on Sync Now.


Ok So all changes are done,Now I will run my App on the Emulator for checking whether my app is working is not.


You can see my app is running successfully.


Now I will generate the signed app for updating in google play store.For doing that, click on “Build” from above option and click on Generate Signed App/Bundle. You can create whether Bundle or apk, both are ok. I will select apk.
