Questions about store listing

What do I need for a Google Play store listing?

A complete listing needs an app title (max 30 characters), a short description (max 80), a full description (max 4,000), a 512 x 512 px icon, a 1024 x 500 px feature graphic, at least 2 phone screenshots (up to 8 per device type), a category, contact details and a privacy-policy URL. You must also complete the content rating questionnaire, the Data safety form and the target-audience declaration before you can publish.

What are the screenshot and graphic size requirements on Google Play?

App icon: 512 x 512 px 32-bit PNG. Feature graphic: 1024 x 500 px. Phone screenshots: between 320 px and 3,840 px per side, JPEG or 24-bit PNG, 2–8 per type. You can also add 7-inch and 10-inch tablet screenshots. A feature graphic is required for your app to be eligible for featuring on Play.

How do I write a Play Store title and description that ranks (ASO)?

Put your most important keyword in the app title (max 30 characters) and lead the short description (80 chars) with the core benefit plus a primary keyword — both carry the most ASO weight. Use the full description (4,000 chars) to naturally repeat two or three target keywords, describe features in scannable paragraphs and end with a clear call to action. Avoid keyword stuffing — Google can suspend listings for it.

What is the Data safety form on Google Play?

The Data safety form is a mandatory declaration in Play Console where you disclose what user data your app collects, why, whether it is shared with third parties and how it is protected. It powers the “Data safety” section shown on your store listing. Inaccurate answers are a policy violation that can get the app removed, so it must match your app's real behaviour and your privacy policy.
