@newqtuser
did you read
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/deployment-android.html
and
https://www.qt.io/blog/aab-support-in-qt-for-android
and
https://www.kdab.com/qt-for-android-better-than-ever-before/

or the official "manual" way: https://developer.android.com/studio/build/building-cmdline#build_your_app_bundle_using_bundletool

Re: Android .aab bundle using python scripts
I had gone through "https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/deployment-android.html" and changed my .apk extension to .aab, well i still dont know i should run the "make -j$(nproc) aab" this command or not as my scripts were taking care of the things and done the changes there too.
and the other documents are mainly describing Qt 5.14 "https://www.qt.io/blog/aab-support-in-qt-for-android" and "https://www.kdab.com/qt-for-android-better-than-ever-before/"
If required i'll share the snippets of the scripts please let me know if any think I am missing or any different approach to address.
Thank you its great having support.
