APK is the best choice if you want want to install the app on your Smartphone directly trough your USB cable or by downloading directly via the QR code. AAB file format is the one used by the Google Play console to publish the app on the market place. You can choose the file format in the Android platform object.
Note that this will be done only for Android release builds, Debug builds will stay in APK mode.
