=== Assistant: Not directly. ===
Not directly. Google Play doesn’t expose the APK’s signing hash to users. The only way to see it is to get the actual APK (from a device or via a downloader) and inspect it locally.

Important points:
* Google Play Signing: Many apps, including Bitwarden, use Google Play App Signing. This means the APK you download from Play is re-signed by Google, not with the developer’s local key. So even if you build Bitwarden from source, the hash will never match the Play version unless you enroll in Play signing yourself.
* Viewing signatures: You need the APK in your hands, then you can run:

<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">keytool -printcert -jarfile Bitwarden.apk

</syntaxhighlight>
* Direct hash online: Google Play doesn’t publish SHA-1 or SHA-256 for app signatures anywhere in the store.

If your goal is to verify that the Play version matches open-source Bitwarden, you’d either:
# Trust the Play Store build (most users do).
# Build it yourself and sideload it (then you control the signature).

I can also explain a method to compare source build vs Play version safely, even with Google Play Signing. Do you want me to?
