For the best results, you will need to take screenshots for each device on the appropriate device size that your app targets. This will then ensure the screenshot represents the exact layout as it would be, when deployed to users.

You can upload your screenshots to the relevant output size within AppScreens by clicking the App Screens button in the action bar.

Within the Google Play Console when preparing your app for release, depending on your build and targets, you will be required to upload a number of screenshots. For instance, phone & tablet compatible builds are asked to provide;

  • Phone - Upload up to eight phone screenshots.
  • 7-inch tablet - Upload up to eight 7-inch tablet screenshots.
  • 10-inch tablet - Upload up to eight 10-inch tablet screenshots.
