App Submission Conditions
Welcome to AndroBranch! We are glad to offer you a platform to show your app to a wider audience. Submitting your app to AndroBranch is not just adding it to our platform but opening multiple exciting opportunities. Below, we have detailed the submission process, requirements, and benefits to help you understand how you can make the most of this opportunity.
Affordable Submission Fee
Submitting your app on AndroBranch is easy and economical, for just a nominal fee of INR 79. The money collected from this fee goes to help us maintain and upgrade our platform so that we can keep on giving our users and developers the best services.
Enhanced Visibility and Opportunities
By submitting your app to AndroBranch, you’re not just listing it on a single platform. Your app will also be featured on the AndroBranch App Store and TapLaunch, our Progressive Web App (PWA) Store. This dual listing increases your app’s visibility significantly, reaching a wider audience. Additionally, there is an increased chance of your app being featured on AndroBranch Blogs, giving it even more exposure and credibility.
Simple Submission Process
Sign Up with Ease
Start by creating an account. The registration process is quick and straightforward, setting you up to access all the features AndroBranch offers.
Navigate to Submission
After registering, click on the three horizontal line sidebar icon located in the top right corner of the dashboard. Select "Submit your app" from the menu.

Fill out the form with all necessary details about your app, ensuring accuracy and completeness.
Image and Content Requirements
Image Specifications
We recommend using a squared PNG or SVG image with a size of 280x280 pixels or larger and a transparent background for optimal display. While we do accept smaller sizes and other formats like WebP, JPG, and GIF, they may result in lower quality visuals.
Content Restrictions
We maintain strict guidelines to ensure the quality and safety of our platform. Pornographic content is strictly prohibited. Apps with sexual content that is not explicit and does not include images may be allowed but will be carefully reviewed.
App Status and Description Guidelines
Beta and Announcement Status
Apps that are in closed beta or have only been announced are not eligible for submission. However, if your app is in open beta or easily accessible, it is likely to be approved.
Description Guidelines
To prevent spam and maintain a professional environment, app descriptions must not include addresses, telephone numbers, email addresses, or website links. Our system provides designated fields for URLs related to official and creator websites, app store links, and social media (currently supporting Instagram, YouTube, Facebook and Twitter).
Review and Approval Process
The approval process generally takes a few days to a week, depending on the volume of submissions. Our team works diligently to review each submission promptly, ensuring a fair evaluation based on our guidelines.
Quality Standards
We uphold high standards for all apps, particularly mobile games, to maintain the platform's integrity. Apps that do not meet these standards may be rejected.
Rejection and Refund Policy
If your app is rejected due to a violation of our rules, we will not issue a refund. This fee is considered a testing and processing charge, which helps cover the costs associated with the review and evaluation process. By submitting your app, you acknowledge that the submission fee is non-refundable, ensuring that our team can continue to offer thorough and fair assessments for all submissions.
Special Cases and Alternatives
App Alternatives
An app is considered an alternative to another if it shares the same primary task and focus. For example, iTunes and Windows Media Player are alternatives as they both focus on media consumption and organization. However, Spotify, which focuses on music streaming, is not an alternative despite its capability to play local files.
Discontinued or Malicious Apps
If an app is discontinued or found to be malicious, it can be reported. Our admins will flag such apps appropriately, ensuring they are not listed as alternatives to other apps.
Ranking and Exposure
Our ranking system goes beyond just likes to ensure users find the best alternatives. We consider various factors to provide a fair and accurate ranking. It is possible that your app may be published on one of our platforms, such as the AndroBranch App Store or TapLaunch, but not necessarily both. This selective publication helps us maintain a high standard of quality across all our offerings. Creating a high-quality app and promoting it genuinely is the best way to gain visibility and attract organic likes, thereby increasing the chances of being featured on both platforms.
We are excited to have you join the AndroBranch community and look forward to seeing your app on our platform. If you have any questions or need assistance, our team is here to help. Happy submitting!
