Google Play Listing Graphics

  • Android application ID: club.devkor.ontime.
  • Launcher source image: assets/icons/app_icon.png.
  • Launcher generation config: flutter_launcher_icons.yaml.
  • Android adaptive icon background: #5C79FB.
  • Generated Android launcher outputs:
    • android/app/src/main/res/mipmap-mdpi/ic_launcher.png - 48 x 48, alpha.
    • android/app/src/main/res/mipmap-hdpi/ic_launcher.png - 72 x 72, alpha.

    • android/app/src/main/res/mipmap-xxhdpi/ic_launcher.png - 144 x 144, alpha.
    • android/app/src/main/res/mipmap-xxxhdpi/ic_launcher.png - 192 x 192, alpha.

Required Asset Package

Prepare these assets from the approved design source before opening the Play Console main store listing.

Asset Required export Current owner
App icon 512 x 512, 32-bit PNG with alpha, maximum 1024 KB Design/release owner
Feature graphic 1024 x 500, JPEG or 24-bit PNG with no alpha Design/release owner
Phone screenshots Owned by #449; minimum two screenshots, JPEG or 24-bit PNG with no alpha, each side 320-3840 px and long side no more than twice the short side #449 owner

For better Play recommendation eligibility, prepare at least four app screenshots at 9:16 portrait 1080 x 1920 or 16:9 landscape 1920 x 1080. Final screenshots must come from real release screens under #449.

Visual Consistency Checklist

  • Use the approved OnTime launcher mark for the Play app icon.
  • Confirm the Play app icon and the installed Android launcher icon are the same brand mark, colors, and shape treatment. The Play icon can be higher fidelity, but it must not look like a different product.
  • If assets/icons/app_icon.png changes, regenerate launcher icons before release:
flutter pub get
dart run flutter_launcher_icons
  • Re-check generated Android icons in android/app/src/main/res/mipmap-* and android/app/src/main/res/mipmap-anydpi-v26/ic_launcher.xml.
  • Keep the feature graphic visually related to the app icon and in-app style, but do not make it a large duplicate of the icon.
  • Avoid fine details, tiny text, or edge-critical content in the feature graphic because Play surfaces may crop or scale it.
  • Keep key feature graphic content near the center and background-only elements near the edges.
  • Do not include store badges, ranking claims, promotional pricing, calls to action, unsupported features, or third-party marks without permission.
  • Match claims to shipped functionality listed in docs/Google-Play-Listing-Copy.md.
  • Provide Play Console alt text for the feature graphic and screenshots using concise descriptions of the actual content.

Human Completion Steps

  1. Get design/product approval for the final launcher mark and feature graphic.
  2. Export the Play app icon and feature graphic in the required formats.
  3. Capture final screenshots through #449.
  4. Compare the uploaded Play app icon against an installed release build icon.
  5. Confirm graphics do not imply unsupported features, social/UGC behavior, awards, rankings, discounts, or platform affiliations.
  6. Upload approved assets in Play Console under Grow users > Store presence > Main store listing.
  7. Store the final source design files and upload-ready exports in the team's agreed design or release asset location, and record that location in the release checklist or issue comment.
