Google PlayStore Listing

MetadataStore listing metadata

What this guideline means

App title, description, screenshots, and promotional images must accurately reflect the app's actual content and function — repeating keywords unnaturally or using misleading screenshots is a violation.

Why apps actually get flagged

Usually flagged for keyword-stuffed descriptions written for ASO rather than users, or screenshots that show features not actually present in the current app version.

A real example

"Your app's store listing contains unformatted or repetitive keywords, or images that do not represent actual app functionality, per the Metadata policy."
