### 🚨 Critical Reminder

<Warning>
  **Version Management Alert**

  Always download your current APK before building a new one! Each new build overwrites the previous version permanently.

  **Best Practice:** Create a backup folder for your APK versions with clear naming like `MyApp_v1.0.apk`, `MyApp_v2.0.apk`, etc.
</Warning>

### Pro Tip

Test your APK on multiple Android devices before major distribution to ensure compatibility across different screen sizes and Android versions.
