I recall a practice question about app signing, and it stated that signing is mandatory for distribution. So, I would go with False.

I’m a bit confused. I thought some apps could be unsigned, especially during development, but not for public release?

I feel like we discussed this in class, and it was emphasized that signing is crucial for security. So, I think the answer is False.

True, that's what I recall from the material. Android has a different signing process compared to other platforms.

I'm pretty sure this is true. Android apps don't have to be signed by the developer before publishing.

I don't know, man. I'm just going to sign my app and call it a day. Trying to find loopholes in Android security sounds like a great way to get your app banned.

Wait, does this mean I can just distribute my app without signing it? Sweet, that'll save me a bunch of time! What could possibly go wrong?

Haha, I bet the answer is False. Unless Google has made some major changes to Android that I missed. Anyone else feeling like they're being pranked right now?

Well, if the app is sideloaded and not from the Play Store, I guess it doesn't need to be signed. But who would do that intentionally? Sounds sketchy to me.

Because every application on an Android device must be signed by the developer before being published.

That's correct. However, there are some exceptions where apps can be installed without being signed.
