Publishing apps on Samsung Galaxy Store and TV Seller Office

Prepare for release

  • Make sure your app's manifest file (tizen/tizen-manifest.xml) is configured properly. Update the package ID, app ID, label, icon, and required privileges if necessary. For more information on the XML elements in the file, see Tizen Docs: Configuring the Application Manifest.

  • Make sure your app is signed with a correct certificate for release. If you want to sign your app with a different certificate, open Certificate Manager and set the profile you want to use to active.

  • Build a release version of your app:

    # Watch app
    flutter-tizen build tpk --device-profile wearable
    
    # TV app
    flutter-tizen build tpk --device-profile tv

    A signed .tpk file should be generated in build/tizen/tpk.

  • Test the release version of your app thoroughly on at least one real device.

    flutter-tizen install

Release a watch app

  1. Visit Galaxy Store Seller Portal and sign up for an account.
  2. After logging in, follow the steps in this PDF file to register an app. For more information on the registration process, read Samsung Developers: Get Started in Galaxy Store.

Note that flutter-tizen only supports Tizen 5.5 and newer. Some Gear devices running Tizen 4.0 or earlier may not be able to run Flutter apps. You can exclude such devices from the app's compatible devices list as follows.

  • When adding a binary, uncheck all screen resolutions except 360x360.

    Resolutions

  • When selecting compatible devices for the binary, uncheck all devices and add only Galaxy Watch series devices by typing Galaxy Watch in the search field.

The store review process may take more than 2 weeks depending on various conditions such as the number of countries selected in the Country/Region & Price page.

Release a TV app

  1. Visit Samsung Apps TV Seller Office and sign up for an account.

  2. After logging in, go to Membership - Group Information and fill out your group and seller information.

  3. If you want to distribute your app outside the United States, you need to set your group type to Partner Group. Click Request Partnership and enter any necessary information to request partnership.

    Group type

    For detailed information on the Seller Office partnership, see Becoming Partners. To request the contact information for your local Content Manager, create a 1:1 Q&A support ticket.

  4. If done, go back to the Applications screen, and click the Create App button to get started with the app registration process. Make sure to choose Tizen .NET Application (TPK package) as your app type.

    App type

  5. Fill out detailed information about your app until all check marks in the left menu bar turn blue. You must attach a valid description file that clearly describes the features of your app in the Verification Info step.

  6. In the Request New Release page of the final Distribute step, check and add only 2021 and later model groups to the selected model group list. Flutter apps are not compatible with 2020 or older models.
