Use a 32-bit PNG with alpha; Google Play applies the final mask.
320–3840 px
Each side must be within this range; use 16:9 or 9:16 for strong merchandising eligibility.
Google Play can display the graphic at different sizes and crops. Keep critical branding away from the outer edges and preview it at small sizes.
A 16:9 graphic (1920x1080) is not a feature graphic substitute. Google Play requires exactly 1024x500 for the feature graphic slot.
Heavy JPEG compression creates visible banding in gradient backgrounds. Export at 100% quality or use PNG for text-heavy banners.
Treat the feature graphic as a visual asset, not a text poster. Google recommends prominent graphical elements and avoiding repeated app-name text or time-sensitive claims.
The Google Play feature graphic must be exactly 1024 x 500 pixels. Upload a JPEG or 24-bit PNG without alpha transparency.
The asset most people mean by Play Store banner is the 1024 x 500 px feature graphic. Other device-specific assets depend on the surfaces your app supports, so check Play Console for the exact required set.
Google Play requires a feature graphic before you can add a preview video, and it may use the asset in promotional placements. Play Console shows whether it is required for your current listing and device targets.
Yes, but keep text minimal. Avoid repeating the app name, using promotional ranking claims, or putting critical information near the edges where it may be harder to read or appear cropped.
Screenshots demonstrate the app experience. The feature graphic is a separate promotional asset and can also act as the cover for a preview video; it does not replace screenshots.
No. The App Store does not use a feature graphic — it uses a preview video poster frame instead. Google Play's 1024x500 slot is unique to Android. Design a separate asset for each store.
