⚠️ Play rejects a screenshot whose longer side is more than 2× its shorter side, so a
1080×2400 phone capture has to be cropped to 1080×2160;
`tools/make-store-screenshots.sh` does exactly that (status and navigation bars only).

better, and Photography is more crowded). Choose the category **first**: the *Suggested tags*
list is influenced by it.
- **Tags:** Play allows a **maximum of five**, and they can only be chosen from Play's own list
(*Suggested tags*, then *Search tags* / the category filter / *Other tags*) — there is no free
text. Apply them under **Store settings › App category › Manage tags**, in this order:
| # | Tag | Why it is unambiguously true of this app |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | **Duplicate photos** | The literal function, and the phrase a user types into search. |
| 2 | **Photo cleanup** | How the short and full description frame the job ("find and remove"). |
| 3 | **Photo management** | Google's own one-line description of the *Photography* category is "Cameras, photo editing tools, **photo management**, and sharing" — so this tag matches their taxonomy wording. |
| 4 | **Storage** | The benefit the listing leads with: `03-results.png` shows 17 groups and 83.5 MB reclaimable. |
| 5 | **Photo gallery** | The thing being managed; swap it if *Suggested tags* offers something closer. |
If a *Suggested tag* is a better match than #4 or #5, take the suggestion — the full taxonomy
is only visible inside the Console, so those two are the interchangeable ones. Google's
guidance is to leave the tags alone afterwards and re-evaluate only if the app's functionality
changes significantly; edits take up to 24 h to appear.
- **Tags deliberately not used** — each would be either off-target or actively misleading:
*Photo editing*, *Camera*, *Video*, *Backup*.
The app cannot edit, cannot take photos and does not scan videos
([README › Known limitations](../README.md#known-limitations)), and a *Backup* tag would
contradict the "no uploads, no internet permission" promise the description is built on.
Google's test is whether an unfamiliar user can see why the tag is relevant from the listing —
for these, they cannot.
- **Accessibility tags: none (yet).** They are a compatibility *claim* and the UI does not earn
one: `ui/components/PhotoThumbnail.kt` holds the only `contentDescription` in the app, and the
scan-progress text has no `liveRegion`, so progress is not announced automatically. TalkBack
support is a follow-up, not a listing decision.

[PRIVACY.md](../PRIVACY.md), so the policy can be hosted as-is.
