Explore the new Google Play Developer Policy Center

Posted by Atul Kumar, Google Play Policy



More than 1 billion Android users come to Google Play every month to discover their favorite apps and games, enabling developers to reach a vast global audience and build successful businesses on the platform. To maintain a positive experience for both users and developers, the Google Play Developer Program Policies play a central role in helping make Google Play an open, safe and enjoyable ecosystem by educating the community and defining appropriate content and activities in the store.




We constantly listen to our developers and users to maintain fair and defined policies and look for ways to improve how we communicate those policies to help developers avoid accidental pitfalls. As part of that effort, we’ve redesigned our Developer Program Policy Center to communicate our policies with greater transparency and clarity. This redesign includes:



  • Thematic organization of policies, so it is easier for developers to find relevant policies and understand the broad principles behind them

  • Visual examples and detailed guidelines for the most common violations based on developer feedback


  • Expanded information on our policy enforcement to help resolve violations

  • A visual refresh embracing Material Design to help developers more intuitively find the information they are looking for on mobile or desktop





From making it easier to self-correct minor violations in minutes using the app publishing status feature to improving our policy communication, the new policy center is part of our ongoing effort to improve the developer experience. We invite you to explore the new policy center and and share your feedback.
