You can share this code with others, but they have to use it within 2 hours of your generating it.
You can also download the apk directly from your apps home page by clicking on the download arrow next to any app project.

WARNING: You can only have one unique keystore per account. If you import your keystore from Beta to the main Thunkable for Android platform, it will override that keystore. We highly recommend that you first download your keystore from both platforms and save it in a safe place. When you are ready to publish an app that was made on Thunkable beta, then upload the beta keystore. When you want to publish an app made on the Thunkable for Android main platform, then upload that corresponding keystore.
