You uploaded an APK that is not zip aligned error

Question

I have just finished and signed the apk through android studio, then I have did an apk protect through apkprotect.com when I am trying to upload the apk to play store I go

Answer 1

I was using Cordova, uploaded a signed APK but still got this error.

The ziptool is what helped me, it's located at ~AndroidSDK\build-tools\24.0.0\zipalign.exe

So for example :

"~\AndroidSDK\build-tools\24.0.0\zipalign.exe" -f -v 4 android-release-signed.apk android-release-signed-zipaligned.apk
