Can you promote in r/googleplayconsole?

Unofficial community for discussions, questions and reflections about the Google Play Console, and about issues of publishing and promoting apps. Some example are publications, rejections, app permissions, rating, policies, updates, subscriptions and testing helping each other as developers or publishers

The short answer

Answer questions helpfully first; you may mention your app or tool briefly and link to its Play Store listing if directly relevant and non-spammy.

What works here

  • Discuss publishing, rejections, permissions, ratings and promotions
  • Link to Play Store listings (explicitly allowed when avoiding APK links)
  • Helpful technical answers with optional brief mention of your product

What gets posts removed

  • Posting pirated content or APK links (must link to Play Store instead)
  • Being rude, abusive, or treating subreddit as direct support from Google
  • Overt solicitation or repeated self-promotional posts that don't add value

Where this comes from

View the current official rules on Reddit

Subreddit scope allows promotion topics

Sidebar/public description explicitly lists publishing and promoting apps as on-topic.

Linking rule for APKs/Play Store

Rules forbid linking to APKs and require linking directly to the Play Store when sharing app binaries.

Community conduct expectations

Rules ban offensive/rude posts and note moderators and users are volunteers (not Google support), so be respectful and don't treat it as official support channel.

No account buying/selling

Commercial transactions around accounts are explicitly banned, so avoid solicitations of that kind.
