Before sending an update request, make sure to verify if it is necessary to send a new version of your app to the Google Play Store. Certain modifications don't require a new submission and can just be updated from your back office

If a new version of your app needs to be sent to the store, read on! 
First, make sure that the latest version of your Android app is marked as published and the back office is unlocked.

To request the update of your Android app, please follow these steps: 

1 - Go to Sales Channels > Android app > Publish

The submission request is usually taken care of within 1 to 2 business days, depending on the number of requests received by our services. You will be informed in the ticket related to the submission request when your app has been submitted to the store.  

If we need to contact you, we will also do so in this ticket, so make sure to check your email inbox and Support messages regularly after clicking "Submit", until we finally notify you that the app has been submitted to the store.
