What are /r/googleplay's favorite Products & Services?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

If someone would like to test it and give a feedback I would appreciate it :), it's now on GooglePlay: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.MantasGiriunas.StayAtHome

after struggling for days on this issue i finally solved it

Google play use your ISP to know your location, and they have a list of banned ISP that belong to VPN companies, either that or they have a list of accepted ISP companies

If you are actually in USA, try turning off wifi and using data connection instead

What worked for me even though i'm not in USA is using a site called VPN Gate:

https://www.vpngate.net/en/

​

It can be used to get a real ISP because the servers are actually real people sharing their computer as a vpn server

You can use their sofware on PC and use android simulator (LDPlayer)

or use any open vpn app + get one of the config files in their site

Don't forget to clear data of Google play store app and Google play services

The internet would be very slow using these kind of VPNs but once you redeem the card or make your first purchase then you can turn it off and use your account as you wish for a while

​

Good luck, and reply to me if you have issues

have you tried the app called "Google opinion awards" ? From time to time it asks something like "when have you last been to that store" and "did you pay with cash or card" and then it gives you around 28 cents of Google play credit that you can use to pay for apps, music, etc... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.paidtasks

I am a huge fan of Brooklyn 99 and learning Unity, so I made a game inspired by Kwazy Cupcakes and it got published :/

Here is the link if you wish to play:

Best icon pack IMO has so many 3D icons

I still see it on the store. Could it be that the game is not compatible with your phone?

You can lock Play Store with a password using specialized "app lock" apps like AppLock or LOCKit. I believe Play Store will remain locked even after being redirected into through ads.

Google does A/B testing so he may just have been lucky. What version do you have installed? I have 16.2.25-all and have it on my Pixel. You can download it from APK Mirror to see if that gets it for you.

Easy phone Dialer & Caller ID by LSM apps are you talking about this? It says now app is completely free no more in app purchases or paid version of it.

You could try this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ua.com.anyapps.installdate

It shows initial app installation date and the date it was last updated.

I can't vouch for this application, so use at your own risk.

did u installed google play game apps (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.play.games&hl=en&gl=US) ?

not sure if it list all achievement or not, but you should can see achievement you gotten (in your profile)

You can buy them right now, on Amazon US, from Google directly, so not sure why you are seeing that message.

In the VPN Gate homepage it says that my ip is from the US so i think i followed the steps correctly, i tried:

172.107.219.42

45.32.13.235 (It said it was from the US but in bluestacks the location is Japan or something like that, didn't work)

161.202.144.236

73.193.108.55 (Didn't even work using the browser at the moment i tried)

There weren't any more at the moment so i stopped here.

If you can't install the Play Store to download/install a root checker app, try downloading one of these and clicking the file to install:

https://www.apkmirror.com/?post_type=app_release&searchtype=apk&s=root+check

https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.abcdjdj.rootverifier/

If the app tells you it's rooted, then go to /r/Android and ask for advice. If it says not rooted, you can probably just do a hard reset safely.

not an app but folks over at /r/googleplaydeals are pretty good at posting deals.

There is even an pushbullet channel so you get notified whenver someone posts a deal there: https://www.pushbullet.com/channel?tag=redditgoogleplaydeals

and here is the channel specifically for movies: https://www.pushbullet.com/channel?tag=redditgoogleplaydealsmovies

It's says:

ISP: Database by Design, LLC · Your Status: Protected

as I said I always make sure to not expose my real ip, and on pc I have additional softwares besides WindScribe. so I'm pretty sure that's not a IP leak.

We thought that too, but this is an alcohol app that facilitates delivery, rated E for Everyone

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.drizly.Drizly&hl=en_US&gl=US

We run no ads at all. We have user generated profile content (username and profile pictures) but that’s no different than all of the beer or weed or liquor companies having a Facebook or Twitter page.

These are apps the google play bots allow:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.drizly.Drizly&hl=en_US&gl=US

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.weedmaps.app.android&hl=en_US&gl=US

Clearly they have a bug in their bots, and ultimately if they do not approve our appeal we will do what you suggest. The good thing is that we offer a web app for the interim.

I had too a similar problem with storage permission for my journal app, in my case the problem was that in the privacy terms document I didn't insert that the app required said permissions....the problem is that no one told me that was the problem neither play console when they rejected the app neither the support who just answered with "our system detected a problem, unfortunately we cannot give you more details". So maybe check that? Cannot guarantee it's your case

It might be that they are not compatible with your phone, and it is hiding the result because of this. Try looking it up on web version of the google play store from your phone. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bandainamcoent.dblegends_ww

That's why they had to expand the ways to earn and offer something more viable.

Like write a comment or rate an app/game or something.

They have their own achievements system like the XBox achievements and GameScore system, with Google Play Games.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.play.games

They have almost the same system as the XBox with that and the Google Play Pass, but without the need of a console because it's mobile games.

It does not take a lot of imagination to do something similar like the Game Pass quests.

Google seems to have implemented a new policy stating that if you dont live in the country of purchase, you cant redeem the balance on your account. There have been general issues lately that have also been discussed in this thread

Some people have said that using VPN's (free or paid) seems to work. I personally like ExpressVPN but maybe you find a better one.

Hi, me and friend of mine were working on our first co-op project and got it released on Google Play store, we have put lots of effort in this project, both not professional game developers, this is still relatively new craft for us. If someone would give it a try and share opinions, suggestions, that would be extremely valuable and helpful, cheers!

You said

>Sometimes it's just one question and you get $0.30.

There are NO questions in Google PLAY POINTS.

https://play.google.com/store/points

On Google Opinion Rewards. There are questions here.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.paidtasks

WHY, you insist to keep confusing the 2 ?

Hey if you are getting those you might wanna consider buying Blu-ray/DVD/Digital Combo (amazon link I have seen it at bestbuy I think as well)if that make sense for your area.

It had the Spiderman 2 Extended editions and The Editors cut of 3.

This is an interactive text adventure story app, so you can make your own choices to alter the course of the story.I’ve orientated myself on certain other text adventure games and specifically added a lot of graphics and illustration, because that’s what I’m always missing when reading good text adventure story games and I believe it pulls the reader even deeper into the story and makes the characters more realistic.

Short overview of the story:The story is about five girls, who discover supernatural abilities like a special bond to one of the four elements. Laurel, the protagonist, also is repeatingly dreaming about a certain boy, but every time she encounters him in the dreamworld, his face looks unfocused. One day, a shady figure appears in her dreams as well, watching her from the shadows and threatening her. Laurel also encounters four other girls in the real world, who seem to have supernatural abilities just like her, though some of her friends seem closer to the darkness than Laurel might have thought at first gaze. The following days, the five girls meet up regularly and eventually find the way to a hidden school that teaches magic. But not all is as well as it seems. Laurel keeps getting into bad accidents and someday, one of her friends suddenly disappears without a trace. Is this related to the creepy shadows, that lurk around the school? Are they somehow connected to the mysterious school director? The shadows are coming… Can you keep your friends safe from them?

The whole book is parted into six parts and I’ve just released the first part and I’m already working on the second part now. A second book is planned as well.

Greetings, Callandha

The gist of the game is a very unusual idea - guessing games in drawings. I drew the pictures by hand (there are more than 300 of them in the game). Some pictures are rebuses, some are simpler in guessing, and some are complicated puzzles.- You can guess each drawing in different ways: you can enter the name of the game by yourself, or guess the game choosing one option from four or six options as the test.- 6 languages: Russian, English, Spanish, French, German and Italian Languages! I hope you will like it!

i need some support if possible i just made my first game it's just a small game but i just started learning how to make games and these things : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.thatwasgaming.guesspuzzle

Thank you so much to everyone who support me :)

Hello Reddit Community,

Your feedback is highly appreciated for our game ! Link below:

Google Play Store:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.GMStudios.LostMemories&hl=en_US

it got banned apparently (after more than a year) and ofcourse he just uploaded it again here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.grinta.app.page

Go to settings, delete data, uninstall also if possible (it will uninstall updated versions not fully as it sys app), go to apkmirror, type play store, download latest version and install and then see if problem persists and let me know if it not fine. Ok.

One more thing,

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.weberdo.apps.serviceinfo

Same issue here with our Pomodoro Focus Timer, DayNinja https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.envisageapps.dayninja has been published for over 7days now and still does not appear in search results. If you search “DayNinja” or the package name “com.envisageapps.dayninja” it won’t appear. We publish many apps and this has never happened in all the years of our business. I tired support chats which just were a waste of hours debating and me insisting that this is a fault. They won’t listen and there is no path to escalate. Google Play is going down hill. A client app a couple of months ago took over a week to approve! Apple is now 24hrs pretty consistently now, at least to get a reply. With google there was nothing, and now this.

Yes, you can even see their address.

For example, the Twitter app. On the web, there is a section called "ADDITIONAL INFORMATION", and under that there is a "Developer" part that says they are located at 1355 Market Street, Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103. On the mobile Play app, there is a section called "Developer contact" and the same info is visible there.

Compare that with the 8 Ball Pool app from Miniclip. In the same place, it says their address is at "Miniclip SA Case Postale 2671 2001 Neuchâtel Switzerland".

Symphony of Eternity is the single best JRPG I've ever played on Android and it's strongly story-driven. (I linked to the Amazon Appstore entry here because that is where I played it from, and it appears to be significantly cheaper than the Play Store entry; I doubt any more recent versions are worth the price as I encountered zero problems when I played it all the way back then.)

First, some background. Google Play and Google Play Services are two separate apps. (On Android, apps are uniquely identified by "package name", and the one for Google Play is com.android.vending whereas for Google Play Services is com.google.android.gms.)

It is Play's job to update Play Services. (You can see the Play Services listing here.) It is also Play's job to update itself.

Two guesses as to what might be going on:

• Play is crashing, and it can't update or can't finish updating Play Services.
• Play is trying to update itself. When it does this, it might be closing and trying to relaunch, which might give it the appearance of crashing. (Eventually you should be able to launch it, though, so maybe this isn't it.)

I'm not sure what the solution is, but here are some things I'd try:

1. Reboot, keep the phone on, and see if Play runs in the background and auto-updates some apps. If so, it might get Google Play Services updated while it's doing that.
2. If that doesn't happen after rebooting, launch Play and open the store listing for Google Play services, then see if there is an update button you can press.
3. If none of that works, go to settings (Settings -> Apps -> See all NNN apps) and go into the details page for both "Google Play Store" and "Google Play services", and choose "uninstall updates" (from the menu) for both. Then launch the Google Play to let it start over from square one updating itself and Google Play Services. When you launch Play, you can check its version in its menu (Settings -> Play Store version). Hopefully you should be able to launch it, see one version listed there, then exit Play, wait a bit, and next time you launch it you should have a new version which you can also launch.

Related question: for this paid app, only the city and country of the developer are published:

How is that possible?

(found that app through other thread)
