Google Play screenshot size.
TL;DR. Google Play screenshots are flexible: minimum 320 px on the shortest side, maximum 3840 px. JPEG or 24-bit PNG without alpha. The rule that catches people out: the long side can be at most twice the short side, which rules out almost every Android screen resolution — a Pixel 9 screen is 1080 × 2424, or 2.24:1, and Play rejects it. Export
1512 × 2688 instead: exactly 9:16, comfortably inside the cap, and the ratio Google asks for if you want to qualify for its recommendation slots. Per asset type
| Asset | Dimensions | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Phone screenshot | 1080 × 1920 to 3840 × 3840 | Long side at most 2× the short side. Min 2 required, max 8 — and four or more at 9:16 to be eligible for Play recommendations. |
| 7" tablet screenshot | 1024 × 1024 to 3840 × 3840 | Min 320, max 3840. Up to 8. |
| 10" tablet screenshot | 1080 × 1920 to 3840 × 3840 | Same min/max as 7". Up to 8. |
| Feature graphic | 1024 × 500 | JPEG/PNG, no alpha, no text in the bottom 25% (overlapped by play button on some surfaces). |
| App icon | 512 × 512 | 32-bit PNG with alpha. Min 24 KB. |
| Promo video | YouTube link | 30 sec recommended. Public, embeddable. |
Practical sizes to actually upload
Mokbi exports 1512 × 2688 for the Play phone slot: exactly 9:16, well inside the 2:1 cap, and high enough that Play never has to upscale. Do not reach for a handset's own screen resolution — Play has no per-device sizes, and most Android screens are taller than 2:1 and get rejected. Google scales as needed; uploading larger is fine.
Big differences from App Store
- Google accepts any size in the allowed range: no per-device-class matrix like Apple's. Pick one aspect and scale.
- Feature graphic is mandatory. Apple has no equivalent. Design it to work without text in the bottom quarter.
- No per-locale localized screenshot upload in the same UI as Apple, Google Play uses the "store listing experiment" flow for locale variants, which is opt-in per country.
- 16:9 landscape is supported and common for landscape-first apps (games especially).
Cross-store reuse
If you're generating for both stores: design once and let the export handle both: Apple takes the 6.9" iPhone at 1320 × 2868, Play takes 1512 × 2688. Mokbi's export does both from one design: the App Store sizes and a Play phone at 1512 × 2688.
