BUILD FAILURE: No main.py(o) found in your app directory. This
file must exist to act as the entry point for you app. If your app is
started by a file with a different name, rename it to main.py or add a
main.py that loads it.

The --private option should point to your application source code folder. As of now, python-for-android won't "install" your application (with setup.py or anything like that), but rather run a file main.py as the application entry point - this file needs to be in your --private folder and will be what is launched when the app starts.

@Jonast ohh, I'm stupid, thank you! it all worked

[elvis124]

still getting an error as still need main.py file though i have the file main.py

[struckchure]

I don't get the --private thing, is it a flag to add along with buildozer?

[YPRAS]

Change your main source code file name to main.py. It will be in the folder in which you have initialized buildozer (bulldozer init)
