What we covered

Shipping the APK is the halfway point. The session covers the half that decides whether anyone installs it.

  • The Play Console, and a tour of the parts of it most developers never open.
  • Why app store optimisation matters, and the five components it breaks into.
  • Keyword research, and writing a title and description that serve both search and a human reading them.
  • Visual assets: what a good screenshot set does that a good app icon can't.
  • Localisation, and the reach it buys for the effort it costs.
  • User acquisition and retention strategies, treated as two separate problems.
  • Monetisation models, and the best practices that keep a listing healthy after launch.

Format

A workshop that walks the Play Console live, then works through the listing decisions in order.

Who it's for

Mobile developers, indie publishers, and product owners preparing a first Play Store launch or trying to work out why an existing listing under-performs.
