Where does Android Studio store the signed APKs?

Question

I just built a signed APK of my app, but I cannot find it anywhere. The directory project/app/build/outputs/apk/ only give me the debug version, not the release signed one.

And, when clicking "Locate" after the build, it opens project/app/release , which also does not hold my signed APK.

Where can I find my signed APK?

I am using Android Studio 3.2.1.

Answer 1

How did you build your signed APK? The location you mentioned is default location and only used when using "Build APK" option:

If you use "Generate Signed Bundle" option, you can specify the APK location:

Answer 2

It will be here

C:\\Users....\\AndroidStudioProjects\\YourProject\\app\\release
