In the past two years, the tide has been rising, and various industries such as games, short videos, and social networking are preparing to go global. And our domestic Android programmers are known as "Flying Angels", they have been doing Android development for many years, but they don't know how to become Google Play developers.
In the previous article, I have introduced to you the detailed steps for registering a Google Play developer account and the collection settings . I wo n’t go into details here. I ’m still struggling with how to register a US credit card. Take a look at PingPong's VCC , the same effect!
Today, what we want to share is: after successfully registering a Google Play developer account, how to list apps and what are the pits ~
[How to list the application]
1. Log in to the developer background
Link: https://play.google.com/apps/publish
2. Create an application
Click "All applications"-"Create an application", a pop-up window will appear
** Note: ** When selecting the default language, first specify whether your user is a domestic user or a foreign friend, because once the default language is selected If you have written in Chinese, you can only use Chinese when you fill in the App introduction and detailed description later.
3, product details page
after the default language and name completed, click "Create", will jump to the product details page, fill in the App profiles and details
screenshots, high-resolution icon, feature graphic , which is a must 3 Pass the content, take a screenshot of these requirements to the design, and wait for the picture to upload
Continue to fill in ~
The website and e-mail address should be filled in according to the company's official website and contact mailbox. The content rating needs to be completed after the apk file is uploaded before the rating judgment can be made.
The specific rules of the privacy policy can be clicked to view the user data policy. If you need to view the user's contact information in your app, then you need to explain the reason for your behavior and ensure that the user's data is not disclosed.
Note: This email address and phone will be displayed to the user together with the App, so do n’t fill in randomly, especially the phone number (remember to add “+86” in front of the number), otherwise please be prepared to be bombarded crazy
4. "App Version" page
After filling in, click Save Draft. Below we select the "App version"
official App in the left navigation bar . It is recommended to upload the Alpha and Beta versions during the internal testing phase, but Google can provide free cloud testing, so you can directly click to manage the official version:
Then click Create Version and choose to join Google Play App Signing, which is actually a safe way to store application signing keys. Choosing to continue or exit the plan will not affect the application's launch.
Note: Personally advise not to continue , because if you join this plan, the signature of the APK you upload will be replaced by Google, especially not suitable for the situation where apk needs to be hardened in the future.
Click to browse the file and upload the apk installation package
. After uploading, the version number and version name will be automatically entered, and then fill in "what are the new features in this version".
After uploading the apk, you can proceed to content rating-click "Content Rating" in the left navigation bar and select "Continue".
Fill in the e-mail address (this e-mail address is used to receive messages sent by Google Play), and then select your application category, then you will enter the questionnaire page:
5. Judgment grading The
questionnaire content is a series of single-choice, basically choose No, save the questionnaire after completion, and then click "judgment grading"
Click to confirm the rating, the content rating items are all Ok ~
6. Pricing and distribution scope
At this point, there is only one "pricing and distribution scope" left. Click this item in the left navigation bar. After completing the prompts, click "Save draft"
Note: "Number of countries / regions supplied" The default is 0, we need to choose.
If all the contents are filled in correctly, we will see 4 green checkmarks in the left navigation bar, and the "Can Publish" button appears
7. Release the official version
Finally, we click on "App Version"-"Modified Version"-"View"-"Release Official Version" in the left navigation bar. Under normal circumstances, you can pass the review after waiting for about 1 hour.
I may encounter some problems after the listing process, I will simply share with you
① What should I do if "This application is not compatible with your device"?
Solution: Player Setting-Other Setting-Configuration-Install Location is changed to Automatic.
②Will Google be soft?
Google should not be soft, but the Google developer account is to be paid.
③After the APP is listed on Google Play, what should I do if Google Map does not appear on Google?
Solution Find the application key in the background of Map, and then modify the key, add the Google Play background certificate to your application
The above is the entire content of this sharing, welcome to find me in the comment area to communicate ~
