Google Play feature graphic size
The Google Play feature graphic is exactly 1024×500 pixels. It must be a JPEG or 24-bit PNG with no alpha (transparency), and it is required for every app and game listing. Google displays it at the top of your store listing and in promotional placements, often with your app title overlaid — so keep critical content away from the edges. Unlike the app icon, the feature graphic has no 1 MB file-size limit.

Feature graphic design tips
- Keep your app name and key visual centered — Google may overlay your app title and crop the edges on some surfaces.
- Avoid placing text or logos in the outer ~10% margin so nothing important gets cut off.
- Use high contrast and a single focal point; the graphic is often seen at small sizes in carousels.
- Don't just repeat your icon — the feature graphic is your billboard, so show the product or a benefit.
- Export flattened (no transparency); if you use PNG it must be 24-bit with no alpha channel.
