Google has updated its Play Console to provide developers with a dashboard for workflows and new metrics. Play Console is Google's tool for developers where subscribers can manage the apps and games they've published.
Google Play Console is Google's platform for developers of Google Play and Android applications that can be used to publish and manage apps within the Google Play store. It has performance metrics so developers can analyze their app's performance, such as app downloads, user ratings, and reviews.
The metrics also show the route behind user acquisition sources, and revenue analytics including in-app purchases and subscriptions. The console provides various monetization options, such as in-app ads, in-app purchases, and subscriptions, and app quality analysis including crashes and ANRs (Application Not Responding). The console also has APIs that can be used to automate tasks and integrate workflows with third-party services. Test and debugging tools are also provided.
The console has now been updated with a redesigned app dashboard tailored to your key workflows, and new metrics designed to help you improve your app quality. The app dashboard has been redesigned so the reasons most developers use it are grouped into four core "developer objectives": test and release; monitor and improve; grow users; and monetize with play.
In each case, there are three metrics that Google regards as the most important to that goal, giving you a quick grasp of how your app is doing at a glance, as well as how those metrics have changed over time. For example, it's now easier to compare between your latest production release against your app's overall performance.
There's also a new section that can be personalized to a developers specific needs. A new "Monitor KPI trends" section at the bottom of the dashboard can be personalized by selecting which trends you want to monitor.
This release also adds pre-review checks for edge-to-edge rendering to make it easier to check that app layouts work across phones and large screens. There's also a specific check to detect and prevent large screen layout issues caused by letterboxing and restricted layouts, along with resources on how to fix them.
The release dashboard in Play Console has been updated to show a centralized view of "user-impacting issues", along with clear instructions to help you resolve them. There's a new "low memory kill" (LMK) metric that highlights when apps terminate without any logging because of low memory problems, and a check on excessive wakelocks that cause battery drain.
The updated Play Console is available now.
