# Create New Google Play Listing

## Before You Begin

* Native publishing requires a ***Professional, Team, or Business plan.***
* Log into the Google account associated with your Google Developer Account.
* Ensure building your app was successful and that you have downloaded the Android App Bundle (.AAB file).

{% hint style="danger" %}
**Important:** Once you create your Listing, you should **never** change the Package Name. If you change the Package Name, the Google Play Store treats the upload as a completely different app. If you want to upload a new version of your app, you must use the same Package Name and [signing certificate](https://developer.android.com/studio/publish/app-signing) as when originally published.

5. Before we create a version of your app, you need to fill in some details about your app's content. ***This is required for all releases.***&#x20;
   * This can be found by scrolling to the bottom of the left-hand menu and click on **App Content.**&#x20;
