Can't upload screenshots to publish my application in google developer console


I spent my whole day trying to upload screenshots of my newly created application. Every time I try to upload a phone screenshot (PNG - 24bit 1920x1080px) it shows an error: 'You should check your screenshot is a valid image'...

Am I doing something wrong or is this a common issue? How do i fix this?

Edit

It is working now, repeating the same process. I guess the developer console wasn't working correctly during the entire day untill now...


Solution

  • Could your image possibly have an alpha channel? The Google Play graphic asset guidelines also state that 24bit PNGs must not have an alpha channel.

    https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/answer/1078870?hl=en

    Requirements:

    • JPEG or 24-bit PNG (no alpha)
    • Minimum dimension: 320px
    • Maximum dimension: 3840px
    • The maximum dimension of your screenshot can't be more than twice as long as the minimum dimension.
