• The video autoplays in mute in the search results.

• The preview has to be between 15 and 30 seconds in length.

• You would have to create a piece in two different resolutions (three, if you want the video to be shown to iPad users).

• The resolutions are:

  • 1080x1920 or 1920x1080 (for iPhone 5/6/7/8 and 6 plus/7 plus/8 plus)

• The maximum file size is 50 MB.

• The accepted file formats are .mov, .mp4, and .m4v.

• The videos for the App Store have to be manually approved by Apple. And there are quite a few guidelines that you have to follow. For example, you are allowed to only use captured footage of the app itself.

🤖 Google Play Requirements for Preview Video

• You can have only one video.

• It can be between 30 seconds and 2 minutes long.

• To watch the video, users have to click on the play button that will be displayed over the feature graphic. After that, a YouTube link will open (so no autoplay for Google Play).

• The recommended dimensions are:

  • 1920 x 1080 (1080p);
