My app works perfectly when I install it using a usb cable. When I download using HockeyApp or Google Drive it installs, but when I click the app icon it says 'App has stopped'. It will not open the application.

I am using React-Native and Android Studio to build the apk. I generate a signed release and check both signature (v1, v2) boxes.

Any ideas on what the issue could be?

****Edit Fixed****

Thank you for all the suggestions.

I have no idea what changed but I started getting a different error so was troubleshooting the new one and everything started working.

Answer of the following post worked: error "Could not get BatchedBridge, make sure your bundle is packaged properly" on start of app

For installing an app from any unknown source, you must check it is released app as you define that app is released version then there may be any duplicity in the manifest file. If you want to check what is the error you must run app from Android Studio and change build variant to relase and for debug app in relase mode 

release {
            debuggable true
        }

it will show what error is comming when you start app in Android Monitor
