Promote your app

1Open Promote your app#

Open it from Home → the "Promote your app" card, from the side menu → "Promote your app", or with the megaphone icon on any app in "Update the App".

Pick one of your apps, or "An app not built here" and enter its name and package. Every tool is prefilled from the app: name, package, icon, brand colours and its Play link.

Play link:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=<package>

2Play listing checklist#

Each app has its own checklist, saved on your phone. Every item shows Done, Missing, or the problem together with the exact spec Play expects.

• Tap an item to open the tool that makes it. The privacy policy URL, category and contact email are entered right there.
• Made something elsewhere? Long-press the item to mark it done.

3Store listing text#

Write a short brief (features, audience) and pick a tone: Friendly, Professional, Playful or Minimal. Then:

• "Write with AI": the estimated cost in AI credits is shown before it runs. You are charged only for what the AI uses, and nothing if it cannot answer. With your own AI key it costs nothing here.
• "Start from a template": free.

Live counters and Play policy checks flag problems as you type, and you can edit everything by hand. Translate the text into any of 14 languages on demand, then copy it all or export a .txt file.

Limits: title 30 · short 80 · full 4000

The title must not contain:
  best, #1, top, free, new, sale or price words,
  calls to action ("download now"), emoji

Descriptions must not contain:
  keyword stuffing, keyword lists,
  star ratings, quoted reviews

4Feature graphic#

A what-you-see-is-what-you-get canvas at exactly 1024×500. Start from one of 9 templates, filled with your app name, tagline, icon and colours.

• Tap an element to select it, drag to move it, pinch or drag the corner dot to resize it, or use the Smaller / Bigger / Left / Up / Down / Right buttons.
• Backgrounds: brand glow, gradient, colour, Midnight, Light, Sunset, Ocean, Mint, or your own photo.
• Optionally add a phone showing one of your screenshots.
• "Show safe zone" marks the centre, where Play puts the video play button, and the edges that some screens crop.

The file is checked (1024×500, no alpha) before it is saved.

Size: 1024×500
Export: PNG (24-bit, no alpha) or JPEG (quality 95)

5Screenshots and social posts#

One tool with two modes.

Play screenshots: add 2-8 screenshots from your phone, reorder or remove them, and write a caption for each screen. Choose the device frame (Black, Silver, White, No frame), the background, the caption style (Top, Bottom, Colour band, No caption) and the fit (fill, or show all). Exports numbered 24-bit PNGs with no alpha, plus an optional ZIP.

Social posts: four sizes and four layouts (Hero, Three screens, Icon spotlight, Feature banner), with captions for Instagram, X, Facebook and LinkedIn plus hashtags, written by AI or from a template. {link} in a caption becomes your Play link. Exports the four images, captions.txt and a ZIP.

Play screenshots (9:16 or 16:9, both accepted by Play):
Phone           1080×1920
7-inch tablet   1200×2133
10-inch tablet  1600×2844
+ a landscape version of each

Social posts:
1:1   1080×1080
4:5   1080×1350
9:16  1080×1920
16:9  1920×1080

6App icon#

Start from the app icon or any picture. Crop (position and zoom) or Pad (the whole picture on a colour): the picture is never stretched.

• Play icon: 512×512 PNG, checked against the 1 MB limit. Upload it square; Play adds the rounded corners and the shadow itself.
• Adaptive icon preview under circle, squircle, rounded and square masks. The layers are 108 dp, so keep the subject inside the centre 66 dp.
• A launcher icon ZIP for an Android project.

Launcher icon ZIP:
res/mipmap-mdpi … mipmap-xxxhdpi/
  ic_launcher, ic_launcher_round,
  foreground and background layers
res/mipmap-anydpi-v26/  adaptive icon XML
+ the 512×512 Play icon

7QR and share kit#

Your Play link, with optional campaign tags (source, medium, campaign). The tags go into Play’s referrer parameter, so Play Console shows which QR code or post brought the installs.

• A QR code drawn with exact pixel modules and a 4-module quiet zone.
• Optionally your app icon in the centre (the code then uses error-correction level H).
• Colours with a contrast check.
• A printable A6 card with your icon, name, QR code and "Get it on Google Play".
• Ready-to-paste share text.

QR code: PNG 512 / 1024 / 2048 px, and SVG
Printable card: A6, 1240×1748 px at 300 dpi

8Promo video#

Formats: "Play / YouTube 16:9 · up to 30 s", vertical 9:16, or square 1:1. The video is an intro card, one scene per screenshot with its caption, and a closing card. Set the time per screenshot, the transition (Fade, Slide, Zoom) and the music: 8 built-in styles or your own audio file. The MP4 is made on your phone, together with a YouTube thumbnail.

Play accepts only a YouTube link:

1. Upload the MP4 in YouTube Studio as Public or Unlisted, with ads off and not age-restricted.
2. Paste the link in the app. It is saved to the checklist.
3. Paste it in Play Console → Main store listing → Video.

16:9  1920×1080 (Play / YouTube, up to 30 s)
9:16  vertical
1:1   square
Video: MP4, H.264 / AAC
Thumbnail: 1280×720 JPEG

9Where your files go#

Everything is saved to public folders on your phone, one folder per app. On Android 9 and older the app asks for the storage permission first. After saving you get Share or Done.

On the free plan, exporting the feature graphic, screenshots, icons or the video first offers a short ad: "Watch ad" goes on with the export, "Not now" cancels it. Paid plans export without ads.
