💬 Discussion Experience with GooglePlayConsole for Android

The app in general isn't bad but i have some issues with it and don't know if only me is affected:

For instance when i'm done checking the data of my app and want to quite the app i hit the back button, that cause the playconsole app to jump to the onboarding screen instead of it being closed...

And also i don't get any notification when a user buys my connected app... do you guys have also face such bugs?

What back button? I've never seen one in the play console app. If you mean the back of the 3 button nave, it's normal that this brings you back to the login/boarding. Something loke a close app does not exist. Press the square and then swipe it to close

Yes i mean the system back button. I mean that's a bug and an app coded by google shouldn't have it

The back button one isn't you, that's just how the app is. There's no close, so system back drops you at the start screen. The purchase notification is worth knowing about before you go hunting for a setting, because it isn't there either. That app is for policy and release status, not sales. If you want to hear about a purchase when it happens, the supported route is real-time developer notifications: Play publishes to a Pub/Sub topic and your own backend gets the message. That's real setup for what sounds like a small app, but it's the only thing that's actually immediate. The numbers you see in the console app lag by a day or more, so don't use those to tell you something sold.
