Android ASO

Use this for Google Play Store optimization. Google Play differs from iOS: full descriptions are indexed, there is no hidden keyword field, and store listing experiments are native in Play Console.

MCP workflow

1. Use app-store-connect-mcp.
2. Read current Play metadata with get_google_editor_data.
3. Read project context when positioning, audience, category, or monetization matters.
4. Draft Google-specific metadata and creative recommendations.
5. Validate with validate_ai_companion_data target googleMetadata.
6. If asked to apply, fill with bulk_fill_google.

Metadata strategy

Title

• Use brand plus one strong keyword/descriptor when natural.
• Do not keyword-stuff or make unverifiable "best" claims.
• Keep readable in search results.

Short description

• Use one compelling sentence.
• Include 1-3 high-priority terms naturally.
• Do not simply repeat the title.
• Make the value clear without tapping through.

Full description

Recommended structure:

1. Hook paragraph with core value and primary keyword early; the first ~250 characters should work before expansion.
2. Benefit-led feature bullets.
3. Trust/proof only if real.
4. How it works or use cases.
5. CTA.
6. Natural keyword variants and long-tail terms.

Keyword guidance:

• Use exact match, variants, and synonyms naturally.
• Long-tail phrases can work because full description is indexed.
• Do not create a visible keyword dump.
• If keyword data is missing, use keyword-coverage before final copy.

Creative strategy

• Feature graphic: communicate the core use case quickly; avoid tiny text; keep it aligned with title and short description.
• Screenshots: at least 2 are required; first 2-3 should explain value, proof, and key workflow.
• Use screenshot-brief for screenshot copy and creative direction.
• Keep Play screenshots and feature graphic consistent with metadata claims.

Ratings and reviews

• Low ratings hurt conversion and may affect visibility.
• Use reviews-ratings for review analysis and replies.
• Prompt users after positive value moments, not on cold start or after errors.
• Do not incentivize ratings.

Play Store Experiments

Use Play Console experiments for:

• icon
• feature graphic
• screenshots
• short description
• full description

Test one primary hypothesis at a time. Keep locale, traffic source, and seasonality in mind when interpreting results.

Localization

Google Play indexes listing text per language. Do not auto-translate keywords. Use localization-cross-localization for market choice and local keyword adaptation.

Rules

• Do not invent Play Console data, rankings, install volume, ratings, or experiment results.
• Do not use iOS-only keyword-field logic for Google Play.
• Do not recommend review incentives or deceptive rating prompts.
• Keep full description readable; indexed does not mean stuffed.
