"Google announced that as of September 2026, it will no longer be possible to develop apps for the Android platform without first registering centrally with Google. This registration will involve:

💀 Paying a fee to Google
💀 Agreeing to Google’s Terms and Conditions
💀 Providing government identification
💀 Uploading evidence of the developer’s private signing key
💀 Listing all current and future application identifiers"
