Screenshot sizes for publishing android app on Google Play

Question

On the developer's console when you go to publish your android application the screenshots are needed with the following specifications, 320 x 480, 480 x 800, 480 x 854,1280 x 720, 1280 x 800 24 bit PNG or JPEG (no alpha) Full bleed, no border in art. Now on this link it says, "You may upload up to 8 screenshots." My questions is,

• What are the sizes for the last five screenshots? - The first three being - 320 x 480, 480 x 800, 480 x 854
• Is it 480 x 800 OR 480 x 854 for the second to eight screenshot or is it that second should be 480 x 800 and third should be 480 x 854 and fourth - eighth?
• Are the sizes 1280 x 720, 1280 x 800 only for tablets and are they optional?

Solution 1

It has to be any one of the given sizes and a minimum of 2 but up to 8 screenshots are accepted in Google Playstore.

Solution 2

When I publish apps I use the following screenshot sizes:

Phone: 1080 x 1920 I prepare 8 images with title, some fancy background and a screenshot inside a smartphone mockup. So it's more than a simple screenshot. It gives some nice branding and helps you to stand out from other apps out there.

Tablet 7": 1200 x 1920 - I do actually a couple of raw screenshots of 7" emulator so that the user could know how the layout will appear on his device. No fancy design with titles etc.

Tablet 10": 1800 x 2560 - same thing here, just a couple of raw screenshots.

all in .png format. Hope this helps.

• We require 2 screenshots.
• Use: Displayed on the details page for your application in Google Play.
• You may upload up to 8 screenshots each for phone, 7” tablet and 10” tablet.
• Specs: Minimum dimension: 320 pixels. Maximum dimension: 3840 pixels. The maximum dimension of your screenshot cannot be more than twice as long as the minimum dimension. You may use 24 bit PNG or JPEG image (no alpha). Full bleed, no border in art.
• We recommend adding screenshots of your app running on a 7" and 10" tablet. Go to ‘Store listing’ page in your Developer Console to add tablet apps screenshots.

You are welcome

Solution 5

You can upload up to 8 screenshots. Those screenshots must be one of the dimensions (sizes) you listed; you can have multiple screenshots of the same dimensions.

for example for a phone screenshot 2160 x 3840

If I provide all screenshots in all 3 dimensions will they all appear on the google play page at once (repeated)?

[Daahrien]

Yes they appear repeated. Most apps do it like that.

I assume that if one wants the screenshots to be displayed quicker, size in MB also counts... Oops, just realized the message was written more than 5 years ago... This Internet doesn't forget anything... :)

[CoolMind]

These settings are still actual.

Are TABLET screenshots required though, even for phone-only apps? Theres an asterisk bu tablet screenshots, so I am assuming they are required?
