Deploy instructions

Google Play

0. Before starting, make sure that there's not uncommitted changes in the local repo. The repo should be a "release candidate" for production.

1. Bump the version numbers in AndroidManifest.xml.

Make sure to edit both android:versionCode and android:versionName elements.

Android Studio

2. Check if the apk is accepted by Google Play.

1. Build -> Generate Signed APK.
2. Next
3. Use existing keystore android_key file sent via email in 18 Feb 2014. Also includes the password.
4. Make sure to uninstall the previous builds of the app in the phone. If still having issues do adb uninstall <package_name> and then adb install generated-signed-apk with the phone connected.

Xcode

Just do Product -> Archive. (not validated though).
