A phone-only project aborted with 'no sevenInchScreenshots'. Play requires the 512 icon, the 1024x500 feature graphic and at least 2 screenshots (Play Console Help answer 9866151). play images uploads what exists and prints an info line for missing optional sets; play.tablets true makes missing tablet sets an error in shots render/check/gallery, validate and play images. Pitfall 19.
- API error bodies on one line (errorBody): Google and App Store Connect pretty-print errors, which hid
SERVICE_DISABLED from the Play account check (reported permission instead of api-disabled), broke tables
and turned serve's apps.list error into a JSON fragment
- apps list: failure says the reason and the fix (same words as apps check)
- newest App Store version by createdDate, iOS first (the API groups versions by platform); all versions
read so no platform is missed; per-app reads four at a time
- apps check (apple): team app count from meta.paging.total with a one-app read
- Play Money without units (prices under 1.00) read as 0.xx, not NaN (catalog diff, subscription diffs)
- health: App Store Connect 404 for perfPowerMetrics / diagnosticSignatures means no field data yet;
Play vitals behind a disabled Reporting API say so with the fix
- validate: gracRatingClassificationNumber optional, socialMediaAgeRestricted only when socialMedia is yes,
socialMedia unanswered is a warning
- tests with sanitized recorded responses (tests/store-real-shapes.test.ts)
- Apple sizes accepted portrait or landscape; Play screenshots any accepted size (320-3840 px, at most 2:1);
Play rejects 16-bit PNGs; feature graphic exactly 1024 x 500
- Required sets per language (Apple only with an App Store locale, Play only with a Play code)
- shots check scans A/B variant folders only with --variants
- validate adds the local renders checks: store errors are blockers, overflow flags warnings (--no-local skips)
- validate: read-only App Store Connect + Play report with ordered blockers (exit 1)
- apple release --phased on|pause|resume|complete and --manual-release (asks first)
- apple status --wait-review (exit 0 approved, 1 rejected, 7 timeout), apple next-build, apple encryption
- play rollout --fraction|--halt|--resume|--complete, play next-version-code
- check --aso, whats-new --since <tag>, privacy-manifest --ios <path>, version
- Apple IAP description limit is 45 characters (App Store Connect Help), not 55
- config: apple.usesNonExemptEncryption, apple.screenshotTypes, ads.appAdsTxt
