Submit to Play Store - Anything

Before you start

You’ll need:

If your app uses backend functions or a database, publish your web and backend changes before submitting to Google Play.

Submit to Google Play

  1. Open Submit to Store

    Click Publish in your mobile project, then choose Submit to Store.

  2. Select Google Play

    Choose Google Play. It appears with a beta badge while Android publishing is in beta. You can also select App Store at the same time if you want to submit to both stores.

  3. Create your app listing

    Anything shows the Android package name for your app. In Google Play Console, click Create App and paste that exact value into Package name. Package names cannot be changed after the app is published, so copy the value from Anything.

  4. Invite Anything's service account

    In Google Play Console, open Users and permissions and invite the service account email shown in Anything. Under Account permissions, enable Release apps to testing tracks. Then open App permissions, click Add app, and select the app listing you just created. You only need to invite the service account once.

  5. Continue submission

    Return to Anything and click Continue. Anything builds your Android app bundle and submits it to Google Play.

What happens next

Anything uploads an Android app bundle to Google Play’s Internal testing track. The release is created as a draft in Play Console. Check Play Console after a few minutes. Google may take time to process the build before it appears. Once it is ready, use Play Console to add testers, finish store requirements, and promote the release when you want to make it public.

Complete Google Play requirements

Google requires store and policy details before your app can go public. Finish these in Play Console:

Anything handles the build and upload. Google Play Console is still where you manage review, testing, public release, and policy requirements.
