Play Store beta distribution
All right, we are going to upload our app to the Play Store as a beta distribution. Exciting, isn't it?
Getting ready
For this recipe, we will be using the app from the first recipe; although, any app that you consider to be ready for the beta launch will do.
Make sure you do have some artwork for it as well, such as icons and screenshots. Don't worry, for this recipe, you can download these items as well from <www.packtpub.com>. Also, think about your app's metadata, such as title, description, and category.
Most important is that you do have a developers account and that you do have access to the Google Play Developer console. If you do not have an account, you need to register first via http://developer.android.com/distribute/googleplay/start.html.
How to do it...
Getting your app into the Play Store is not so hard. It just takes some time to set up things the right way:
- Sign in to your Google Play Developer Console webpage or register first...
