What are common Google Play rejection reasons?+
Common reasons include incomplete privacy policy, mismatched permission declarations, outdated target SDK, misleading listing metadata, and unstable app behavior.
What should I do first after receiving a rejection email?+
Extract the exact policy clause and trigger details, then build a remediation checklist before resubmitting.
Why does privacy policy often cause rejection?+
Many apps declare data handling differently from actual behavior. Your policy must reflect real data types, purposes, sharing, and user rights.
How should permission declarations be fixed?+
Use least-privilege access, remove unnecessary permissions, and keep clear justifications aligned with in-app functionality.
How do I fix target SDK issues?+
Upgrade to the required target SDK version and complete critical regression tests before resubmission.
How soon can I resubmit after rejection?+
As soon as root causes are fixed and internal validation is complete. Quality of fixes matters more than speed.
Are new developer accounts reviewed more strictly?+
Usually yes. Keep the first release scope simple, provide complete information, and build a clean approval track record.
How can I improve Google Play approval rate?+
Run a compliance pre-check covering privacy policy, permissions, SDK versions, metadata consistency, app stability, and test account availability.
