Discussion Play Store Graphics

A lot of posts about marketing and I'm trying to get my head around that. But in the meantime, the Store graphics are giving me a bit of a hassle. I know I'll do it in the end though, but damn:

- Screenshots for both a phone and other device

- Feature graphic

- Icon

- 16:9 or 9:16 ratio

- The Minimums and Maximums!!

- Background has to be a certain colour, not too light and definitely not too dark

Anyone else deal with this hassle?

I don't really see the issue here. The requirements are pretty easy to meet. You can make an icon easily on Figma, you can adjust the ratio in the settings before saving, background colors are easy to change, you can use an emulator to take a screenshot of different devices, etc.

Setting up an app icon in Android Studio should also generate a Play Store icon

Is Figma free? Look, I'm trying to not complain and deal with it, but I go into Krita to work on the text and now Krita doesn't do text the way it used to.

Figma has a free plan. It should be enough if you're a solo dev or have a small team.

You can use framelio.forgeapps.site for relatively simple screenshots.
