You might want to append your app version name in the name of your app’s apk. Specially, when you release your app frequently. Doing this you can distinguish the apk files easily. You may try the following two ways to include the version name in apk name automatically.
Open build.gradle file inside project’s module and proceed with any one of the following fixes-
Fix 1: Include archivesBaseName = “YourAppName-$versionName” in defaultConfig{}.
defaultConfig { applicationId "your.package.name" minSdkVersion 19 targetSdkVersion 23 versionCode 1 versionName "1.0.0" archivesBaseName = "YourAppName-$versionName" }
Fix 2: Include project.ext.set(“archivesBaseName”, “YourAppName-” + versionName); in defaultConfig{}.
defaultConfig { applicationId "your.package.name" minSdkVersion 19 targetSdkVersion 23 versionCode 1 versionName "1.0.0” project.ext.set("archivesBaseName", "YourAppName-" + versionName); } Note: Both the fixes have been tested on Gradle plugin 2.1.0.
