Error: Package Name already exists in Google Play.

Sometimes when you upload your .aab file to the Google Play Store, you may get the following error: "You need to use a different package name because "[package name]" already exists in Google Play. This error means the package name you used for your file upload already exists in another Google Play Listing. The package name is either being used by a different listing in your Google Play Account or it is used by another Developer.

Resolution

1. You have a separate Listing using this Package Name.

   • Discard the release and load the .AAB file to the correct Listing in Google Play.

2. The Package Name is used by another developer.

   • You will need to create a new Package Name and Listing by following the steps to Publish starting at Register your Android App.
