Set up your app


After you create your app, you can start setting it up. Your app’s dashboard will guide you
through all the most important steps to get your app available on Google Play. 

You’ll start by providing details about your app’s content, and entering information for your
Google Play store listing. After that, you can move onto app release; this guides you through pre-
release management, testing, and promotion to build pre-release excitement and awareness. The
final step is launching your app on Google Play, making it available to billions of users.

To start setting up your app, select Dashboard on the left menu. For the next steps, go to Set up
your app on the app dashboard.

Manage APK files


Package names for app files are unique and permanent, so please name them carefully. Package
names can't be deleted or re-used in the future.

Your APKs can have one of three statuses:

 Draft: APKs that have not been served to users yet


 Active: APKs currently being served to users
 Archived: APKs that were once active but are no longer being served to users
