Best practices
- Publish your APK to the default closed or open testing track to be eligible for a pre-launch report.
- To ensure your app is tested in full, if your app has a sign-in screen, provide test account credentials.
- Check how your app runs on different versions of Android, and in particular on the latest version.
- Identify security vulnerabilities and take action before your app reaches all users.
- Customize your tests further by specifying language preferences, deep links, or even test paths.
- Use pre-review checks to catch issues like incorrect edge-to-edge rendering and large screen layout problems before your app is reviewed.
