Question: Which of the following short app descriptions complies with Google Play policies?
- Record daily calories and carbs for a healthier you.
- Lose weight forever with the #1 Diet App in the world
- Diet, lose weight, look good, feel good about yourself, be your best, diet app, calorie counter, carb counter, drop weight fast, new year's resolution, drop the weight for good, no more carbs
- Use the discount code "lose it now" to get 30 days of dietary monitoring for free
Explanation
The compliant description is concise, relevant, and focused on app functionality. Google Play’s Metadata policy allows clear descriptions of what an app does when the text is not misleading or repetitive. It avoids ranking claims, excessive keyword repetition, and promotional offers. A short description should communicate core value without using prohibited store listing tactics.
Why the other options are incorrect
Ranking claim Uses an unsupported store performance claim, which is not allowed in store listing metadata.
Keyword stuffing Repeats diet-related terms to influence discovery, which conflicts with Metadata policy.
Discount code Includes promotional pricing information, which is not appropriate for a short description.
