RuStore — overview

RuStore — price, timeline & scope

RuStore is publishing and optimizing an app in the Russian app store RuStore: registering a developer account, preparing and publishing (accounting for RuStore requirements), passing moderation, ASO page optimization (keys, metadata, icon, screenshots, description), RuStore SDK integration if needed (payments/push/updates), localization, analytics, recommendations on rating/genuine reviews, tracking rules. The work: registration/publishing, ASO, SDK if needed, analytics. Honestly about 'relevance and audience', this is important: RuStore is a growing Russian store, especially relevant for the RF audience (including on devices with Google Play restrictions and in the government context); this is a real and important channel for the RF, but its audience/reach differs from global stores — we assess realistically. Honestly about 'publishing/ASO ≠ installs and ≠ top': we increase the chances of visibility/conversion, but installs/top depend on the store's algorithm, product, demand, competition, rating. 'We guarantee RuStore top / N installs' = a lie. Honestly about 'RuStore moderation': the app passes moderation per the store's rules; violations = rejection. Honestly about 'SDK/integrations': for payments/push/updates RuStore SDK integration may be required — technical work, we will honestly assess the scope. Honestly about 'rating/reviews only genuine': inflation violates the rules — only legal methods. Honestly about the effect: it publishes and optimizes an app in RuStore (registration/publishing, ASO, SDK if needed, localization, analytics, genuine reviews), opening an important channel for the RF and increasing the chances of visibility, but publishing/ASO ≠ installs/top; the audience/reach differs from global stores; moderation can reject; SDK integration is separate work; only genuine reviews. Honestly about access: an app, a RuStore developer account, and for payments/push — resources for the SDK are needed. An important boundary: this is RuStore; Google Play ASO — 600; Huawei AppGallery — 601; Samsung Galaxy Store — 603. The base price starts from 20,000 ₽ for publishing + ASO (excluding SDK integration, if required).

Problems we solve

  • The app is unavailable in RuStore for the RF audience (including under Google Play restrictions).
  • A misconception that publishing/ASO in RuStore = guaranteed installs/top.
  • Not knowing about RuStore moderation and about the need for SDK integration (payments/push) for some functions.

FAQ

  • Will publishing in RuStore give many installs and top?

    Not guaranteed, honestly: publishing and ASO increase the chances of visibility, but installs/top depend on the store's algorithm, product, demand, competition, rating. RuStore is a growing and important channel for the RF, but its reach differs from global stores. We do not give install/top guarantees — we increase the chances legally.

  • Will all app functions work in RuStore?

    It depends on integrations, honestly: for payments, push and updates RuStore SDK integration may be required — this is technical work; without it some functions may not work. We will honestly assess the integration scope before the start, rather than pass publishing off as 'all ready'.

  • Can installs/reviews be inflated?

    No, honestly: inflating installs/reviews/rating violates RuStore rules and leads to sanctions. We work only legally (ASO, requesting genuine reviews, working with feedback). We do not do inflation — this is fundamental.
