I am developing a magazine application in Android. For that, I would like to update the icon in google play dynamically with the cover page of my latest magazine (Similar to Newsstand Atom feed in iTunes/iOS)
I would like to know if there is any way to achieve this in Google Play Store?
P.S : Not Application icon in device.
No. Google does not provide any APIs for managing Play Store listings, nor does it currently offer a system for automatically updating Play Store app data.

I'm developing an app which uses Android Google Play Games. I have implemented an achievement system and just need to show the achievements page in the language selected by the user.
Here is the code I use to show achievements page:
startActivityForResult(Games.Achievements.getAchievementsIntent(getApiClient()), 1);
As far as I know, it is NOT possible. To avoid that, I had to develop my own UI to display them.
We all know that the Google spider comes by your website now and then to update their database so your website shows up in Google Search.
Is their a way to tell Google all the text I have in my app so it will show the Google Play Store page of my app when a users searches for keywords I use in my app?
I looked into the new Android feature of Google Indexing but those deep-links are something different.
I would like to index the content of my app so it can be found in Google Search before the user knows about and installed my app.
Background info: My app has a lot of (static) textual content in TextViews.
There is nothing like this that I am aware of.
Google indexes the text you put in the description of your app when you publish it on the Google Play Store.
Take a look at this:

And here is concrete advise on app discoverability from Google themselves:

Is it possible to implement rating system for in-game objects (just like app rating in google play store) using Google Play Game Services API?
I never used it before and didn't find suitable chapter, but may be it has low level API for such things.
Or may be Leaderboard API can be used somehow.
Check out RatingBar. It is not part of the Google Play Games Services API, but it will allow you to implement a star rating system.
I want to read app rating from android play store of my app. To do this, is there any api provided by google or not?
Is there any other way to read rating of particular app?
You can try out Android Market API, as this is the unofficial API, i am not sure it will work fully.
To fetch Rating of a particular app, try HowToSearchApps from the same API.
