I've been searching online but I still haven't found the answer to this..

On the Google Play Developer Console, I uploaded an APK file to the 'Production' tab. I now want to test the app in 'Alpha' mode first. How can I test the app in 'Alpha' without publishing the Production APK at the same time?

I've already published then unpublished the 'Production' version, so it seems I can't delete the app from the console and start again.

Go to publish section click on your app, click on "APK", then click "Alpha Testing" then upload now new APK.

Does this work?

I have App in production and can upload alpha/beta apks...

Edit:

taken from this thread:

click on "Advanced Mode" click on "Production" -> Deactivate APK

then proceed as mentioned above

  • I can upload alpha/beta apks in addition to the Production apk, but if I click on 'Republish App' at the top-right of the screen, would it not publish the 'Production' version too? – danger mouse Oct 10 '16 at 12:08
