App files
Download the files that FlutterFlow built for a version of your app: the Android app, the Google Play file, and the iPhone app. Only the newest successful build for each store keeps its files, so an earlier version has none after a newer build succeeds. Owners and developers can download a version’s files.
Download a file
A version’s Files lists the files that you can download for that version. To download a file:
- Open Releases.
- In Versions, select the version.
- At the top of the version, select Options, and then select Files.
- In the Files for dialog, such as Files for 0.1, select Download next to the file that you want.
Which file
Each row also shows the store’s build identifier: the version code for Android files and the build number for the iPhone app.
| Row | File | What it’s for |
|---|---|---|
| Android app | .apk |
Installing on an Android phone. Download it, and then open it on the phone. |
| Google Play file | .aab |
Uploading in Play Console. |
| iPhone app | .ipa |
Uploading with Apple’s upload tools. To install your app on an iPhone, use TestFlight. |
Link expiry
A download link works for 1 hour. Each time you select Download, FlutterFlow gets a fresh link. If a saved link stops working, open Files and select Download again.
Troubleshooting
For problems with builds and files, see Troubleshoot phone builds and store releases. To install a test build on a phone, see Android test build or iPhone test build.
