Submit an Update

When you're ready to publish an updated release of your dApp, follow these steps.

1. Navigate to the Publisher Portal​

Log into the Solana dApp Publisher Portal and find your published app in the sidebar.

2. Update your app details​

If needed, you can make changes to your app details (e.g Name, Descriptions, Preview Assets, etc) in the "Details" page.

Note: These changes will only reflect in the dApp Store after a new release version is approved

3. Submit an updated release version​

Navigate to your app's "Home" screen and press the "New Version" button.

Submit an existing APK​

If you only want to make a change to your app details and do not want to submit a new APK build, then select the "use existing APK" option.

Submit an updated APK​

If you want to submit a new APK, ensure:

  • The APK is signed with the same Android signing key you used for your initial release.
  • The versionName and versionCode value is properly incremented between each update.
  • The "What's new" section is filled out. This section will be displayed to users in your dApp Store listing page.

After you've completed the upload, press "Submit" and you'll be prompted to sign messages and transactions for uploading to Arweave and minting your Release NFT.

After submission​

Once submitted, the new release automatically enters the app review queue and will immediately go live once approved.

App Review​

  • It typically takes 2-5 business days for app review, so please be patient as we go through the review queue.
  • You'll be notified via your developer email when the app is approved or if changes are needed.
