So I just created my first App using HTML, CSS, Javascript/Jquery and now I want to get it on Google Play Store for distribution but unfortunately, I learnt for you to be able to do that, you must own a Google console account and as a new user, u must pay some dollars. To cut a long story short, I don't have such amount of money now hence i need someone, who already owns an account to assist me... The app is a simple and easy to use GPA calculator (2MB) for Nigerian students and of course, it's a free app. I just want it out there and available for use by Nigerian students...

HELP PLEASE...

send a PM . .

question though . . why should anybody use this app over the millions in the playstore? why do you think yours is unique?

Done...

With regards the question... Every app in the platform have numerous competitors... So is a GPA calculator but nonetheless, mine is easy to use, offers a lot of functionality i.e it will not only calculate a student's GPA/CGPA accurately but will also tell you the class of degree especially for students using the 5point grading system.
It is a simple yet powerful app, just anyone can play around with in a friendly environment.

Thanks...

You have to create something like a keystore, or whatever nonsense they call it.

I don't have time to read it, so I just pulled the link from google. Read it here: https://developer.android.com/studio/publish/app-signing

And make sure you're not uploading a debug build. Most of the apks you build directly from Android Studio builds debug by default. So make sure to check that out too.

What technology did you use in coding your app

I used a normal text editor (NotePad) in writing the codes and then built the apk online using adobe phonegap build.
The apk may be a debug just as u suggested cause when I downloaded it, the name was reading something like mygpacalculator-debug.apk.

unfortunately you can't submit such app to playstore. The app should read something like mygpacalculator-release.apk and it must be signed. However you can share your debug app on other platforms.
