How can I unrelease my android app after releasing in playstore?

Question

I released my app in playstore, but I want to change its current version to a beta version, and unrelease it.

How can I change the current released version of my app to be in testing phase (beta version)?

Answer 1

You can unpublish it, but it won't get removed from the devices of people who have already installed it. Unpublish the production application, Increment the app version code and publish a new beta version. Later you can either move the beta version to production again or increment the app version code and publish new version to the production.

Answer 2

To unpublish your app: 1- Go to your Play Console. 2- Select an app. 3- Select Store presence > Pricing & distribution. 4- In the "App Availability" section, select Unpublish. Hope this is help
