I have completed all steps for making Android app (Google Developer Console). Everything is saved and my App Status says "Draft in Prod"
What is the next step to see the actual version in the Google Play Store?
You have to press the button "publish now" in the upper left corner.
It could be placed better, that's right
if all steps for publishing were completed on the upper right corner in the Google Developers Console under APK's tab should be a button to publish the app to the Google Play. Otherwise the same button will give you the option to view the reasons why it still can't be published.
Usually people (including me) forget to check 2 checkboxes at the end of Pricing & Distribution page (Content guidelines and US export laws) which are obligatory.
you have to convert all grey 'right mark' to green 'right mark' for this you need to fill all mandatory field.
all the mandatory fields are inside the menu with grey/green 'right mark'

I am trying to publish an app on google play console. It shows me "App Status" is "Draft" and "Update Status" is In Review". Is it ok?
My Google Play Console Screenshot
Select your app by clicking on its name. This will take you to the screen where you filled out the information for your store listing. A multitude of menu options can be found on the left side of the screen. Select Pricing and Distribution from the drop-down menu. Scroll down to the bottom of the page to acknowledge that the software conforms with US Export Laws and that it meets the Content Guidelines. Before you click any of the buttons, read the information for each one to make sure your program complies. You have to complete all the requirements.
In my google developer console, all the app info is given but the publish mode is still "draft mode ".It show

I cant see anywhere to click and accept some rules there! Anywhere in the console.Can anyone help?
I solved it.I miss this one is finally i found it.
Go to your the Developer Console. Click on your app's name. This will bring up the screen where you entered the data for your store listing. On the left side of the screen are a number of menu items. Click on the one for Pricing and Distribution. Scroll to the bottom of the page that comes up and there you will find the place to acknowledge that the app meets Content Guidelines and to acknowledge that it complies with US Export Laws.
Read the info for each before clicking them to ensure your app really does comply.
(For other people) sometimes reason why it stays in the draft mode is just applying the rating to the application is forgotten. After you fill the questionnaire dont forget to apply rating to the app.
For me, it was a missing translation for descriptions. You really need to be careful on that because it can't be found for current UI.
As title states. I clicked on "Publish" in the google play developer console. And it said my app now got uploaded. But I dont know which apk file was uploaded. How can I find out?
EDIT: I am 100% signed in correctly. Here is an image of the tabs on the left.
In the tab with the android robot picture, it says I have no applications. But in the tab with the google controller thing, I can click on my app, look at the game details, leaderboards, achievements etc and I can click publish but I dont know what it's publishing...
Go to your Developer Console (All Applications) and then click on the app. On the left, there is a list of things to choose (Statistics, etc.) so click on APK.
That will tell you everything about the version and version code of the APK. You can click on the latest version to get some details on it, and at the top of the page it even tells you the package name.
You can by checking the version of the app. Click on all apps -> apk, then you see a list of apk's you uploaded and the current version number.
Are you sure that your app is on play store and not only in play game?
If you upload it with your account should be appared in the tab with android's icon
I am trying to publish my newly developed app in Google Play. I have done this earlier. In google developer console I have uploaded my app successfully and it is showing activated. But in the store listing I have filled all mandatory information, still it is not activated. I have attached a screen shot of the store listing page. There you can see on the screen shot that I have filled all mandatory fields. When I check "why I can't publish" menu on right most corner, it showing me "You need to add a title" and "You need to add a description". But I already filled those out. Does anyone have any idea on this?
For me it was because I didn't have at least two screenshot images.
For others it may be different. You can hover your mouse over the grayed out checkbox to see what is still missing.
If You added other languages, You have to fill all this stuff separately. Click "Languages" and check if other ones are enabled and check if You filled them too...
I uploaded an app onto the android market, but i found a bug in it and want to remove it for now. How can I do that?
Solution as mentioned below: From the developer console, click the link for your app. Scroll to the bottom, there are 2 buttons - "Unpublish" and "Save". Click "Unpublish"
Question and answer are a bit old and it seems the Developer Consoler UI has changed since then, because I don't find the "Unpublish" button at the bottom of the screen.
In fact, it's easier to find now, but it took me a while. From the Developer Console, click in the link for your app. In the header with information about your app, you'll find a link with the text "Unpublish app" (see the screenshot).
You go to market dev console and unpublish it. There is a huge button "Unpublish" at the bottom of the screen with your app
