1 min read •

Publishing an Android app can be stressful, especially when the Google Play Store review team rejects your submission for avoidable issues. Here are ten important tips to help you pass review smoothly and avoid unnecessary delays.

🍏 1. Use Last Android SDK Version#

  • Required: Use the latest Android SDK version (sometimes or atleast in 31 august 2026 you must use the latest android sdk version or update to newer version that google will accept it.)

🔒 2. Use Secure HTTPS Connections (SSL) for Backend APIs#

  • Enforce HTTPS: Ensure all API endpoints, image assets, and external links use https:// instead of http://.
