== APK Signature And Verification ==
{{Migrating|https://smartpossdk.gitbook.io/cloudpossdk/faq/other-development/app-signing-process}}
In standard Android system, all the applications should be signed before installed to system. Please refer to [https://developer.android.com/studio/publish/app-signing.html Google's resource] for detail.
 
In wizarPOS terminal, the system will also verify the certificate chain of the APK signatures by the application root certificate, except the normal Android signature checking. So the terminal only allow the APK signed by the application root certificate or its sub certificate.
 
The developer should apply the development certificate from wizarPOS. Please refer to this document [ftp://sdkuser:wizsdkar@ftp.wizarpos.com/wizarPOSDevCertificateApplyGuide_en.pdf wizarPOSDevCertificateApplyGuide_en.pdf]. After you get the CSR reply from wizarPOS, please import the certificate chain file to your key store. Then the APK signed by this key store can be installed to wizarPOS production terminal.
 
By default, the additional signature verification is not required in developing mode terminal. So you can use ADB to install and debug the normal Android APK in developing mode terminal.
 
The wizarPOS application root certificate can also be update to acquire's own application root certificate to let acquirer (terminal owner) control the terminal application totally.
