Install two debug apk from same application (Flavors)

So I have this app1 and I want to create a app2, from the app1, It will be almost the same app, but with differences in the layout. I manage to do that using productFlavors. The result need to be two apps in the Play store, both free and the user can have both in his phone.

However I can build both apk for debug, but when I install one, the phone doesn't let me install the other. Will this happen after both are uploaded to the store?

This is my gradle:

defaultConfig {
    applicationId "com.example.app"
    minSdkVersion 16
    targetSdkVersion 25
    versionCode 48
    versionName "3.1.1"

    multiDexEnabled true
}

signingConfigs {
    String releaseFilename = "/.androidReleaseKeys/example_release.properties"

    Properties props = new Properties()
    props.load(new FileInputStream(file(releaseFilename)))


    release {
        storeFile file(props.getProperty('keystore'))
        storePassword props.getProperty('keystore.password')
        keyAlias props.getProperty('keyAlias')
        keyPassword props.getProperty('keyAlias.password')
    }

}

productFlavors{
    app1{
        applicationId "com.example.app"
        buildTypes {

            debug {
                buildConfigField "String", "GOOGLEMAPS_API_KEY", "\"${googleMapsAPIDev}\"";
                debuggable true
                proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
            }


            release {
                signingConfig signingConfigs.release
                buildConfigField "String", "GOOGLEMAPS_API_KEY", "\"${googleMapsAPIRelease}\"";
                minifyEnabled false
                proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
            }
        }
    }

    app2{
        applicationId "com.example2.app2"
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1"
        multiDexEnabled true

        buildTypes {

            debug {
                buildConfigField "String", "GOOGLEMAPS_API_KEY", "\"${googleMapsAPIDev}\"";
                debuggable true
                proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
            }


            release {
                signingConfig signingConfigs.release
                buildConfigField "String", "GOOGLEMAPS_API_KEY", "\"${googleMapsAPIRelease}\"";
                minifyEnabled false
                proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
            }
        }

    }

Declare this permission in manifest with ${applicationId} placeholder:

<uses-permission android:name="${applicationId}.permission.C2D_MESSAGE"/>
<permission
    android:name="${applicationId}.permission.C2D_MESSAGE"
    android:protectionLevel="signature"/>

Do not hardcode package name in manifest.
