Visual Studio Mac, Android release signed is older than current build

I'm using Visual Studio mac for developing Xamarin, recently I released my Android app but a rare behave happened! Releasing app popped out 2 files named app.apk and app-Signed.apk and I think the 2nd one should be the one I should upload to Google Play store (am I right?), but after opening it on my device I found out many changes that was appearing in debug app are not exist in Singned one! while app.apk is OK with changes I applied to app.

  1. Is app.apk in debug mode?
  2. What should be app-Signed.apk and why it has this problem and how can I fix it (if answer to #1 is true)?

Sometimes Visual Studio Mac for some reason does that. Remove obj and bin folder from a project directory, and then build again. If that happens again (2 files) the odd thing that you need to upload to google play non signed one.
