Apps Is it safe to send Android certificate key along with source code?

[sandywilkins]

I just sold one of my Android apps via Apptopia. The selling process requires that I send the buyer my Android certificate key, used to sign the app.

I have several other apps which I'm not selling, that are signed using this same certificate.

Is is safe to send the key to the buyer? Is there any way they could mess with my other apps?

Thanks

I'm no expert at this but isn't the certificate encrypted with a password? If so it should be no issue, as long as you keep password private and it's not easy to guess.

Passwords in general you should never give to anyone; if someone asks for your password for something, it is most likely a scam.
