Publish

Bring your apps to market with Vodafone. If you are looking to publish your app for distribution with Vodafone AppSelect across the United Kingdom, Germany, Italy, Spain, Ireland, Portugal, Greece, The Netherlands & Russia, then it only takes a few simple steps, see below. If you also want to publish to our application store for South Africa (which supports all these platforms: J2ME, Symbian, Android, Windows Mobile & Blackberry) then you'll need to click here.

Tip - Before you get started, make sure to check the Vodafone AppSelect Image Style Guide for advice about providing great imagery for your content in Vodafone AppSelect. Also make sure you check out the Vodafone AppSelect Metadata Guidelines that provide the metadata requirements you need to supply when publishing your content in Vodafone AppSelect and our Top tips to drive downloads in Vodafone AppSelect. Ensure your AndroidManifest.xml settings are correct using our Android device class and manifest guide. Review the steps you'll go through when uploading your app in the Vodafone AppSelect Application Upload Guidelines. And last but not least, be sure to fully test your apps on the latest Android handsets using our FREE Vodafone Handset Cloud service.

Update: QA checks will continue to be applied with no changes but in addition to this there will be a filtering process which will be applied prior to the QA process. This does mean your application will need to pass the filtering process before QA can start. Read more about these updates here
