Here at Google Play, our mission is to support developers with the tools and opportunities you need to reach billions of people around the world. At this year’s Google I/O, we announced new tools, features, and updates to help your business thrive. If you missed this year’s event, check out our recap video below, or read on for our top 3 announcements from I/O.

#1: New custom store listing features

We’ve made three big updates to custom store listings, giving you more ways to deliver personalized content to a wider audience.

Re-engage lapsed users by showing them why they should give your app or game another chance with inactive user custom store listings

Create a seamless marketing funnel to increase conversions by directing users to specific custom store listings for your Google Ads App campaign ad groups

Mange more listings faster and easier with Store Listing Groups which allow you create a base listing, then modify specific elements for different audiences

#2: Generative AI and machine learning for store listings

Draft better content with less effort with our new experimental integrated AI helper. For example, if you’re writing a listing in English, you can now enter prompts like your intended audience and theme and it will generate a draft you can edit, discard, or use.

#3: Price experiments

Finally, we launched price experiments for in-app products, which allows you to A/B test price points to better reach both new and existing buyers. You can set up experiments in minutes in Play Console, testing the price sensitivity of buyers for selected in-app products across different markets. Better understand buyer behavior with added support for key monetization metrics such as revenue uplift, revenue derived from new installers, buyer ratio, and orders, giving you statistical confidence in your decisions.

If you’re not sure where to start, head over to strategic guidance in Play Console for a holistic view of your monetization data and influential performance metrics. Our new pricing features help you identify opportunities for growth to help you effectively generate revenue while uncovering opportunities for buyer conversion.
