RealWear Marketplace Submission Requirements
The RealWear Marketplace is a powerful platform for showcasing your app to millions of potential customers around the world. To ensure a positive experience for everyone involved, we have established some guidelines for app submission. Here we will go over the requirements and process for getting your app on to the RealWear Marketplace.
Requirements
-
Your app should meet a certain level of quality in terms of functionality, usability, and design. We recommend thoroughly reviewing your app on at least 1 RealWear device before submitting it to ensure it meets these standards.
-
Your app should be designd to use power efficiently and be used in a way that does not risk damage to the device. Apps should not rapidly drain battery, generate excessive heat, or put unnecessary strain on device resources.
-
Your app must not contain any content that is inappropriate or offensive, such as hate speech, violence, or pornography. It should also not violate any intellectual property rights.
-
User privacy is paramount. Your app should have a clear and concise privacy policy that outlines the data it collects and how it will be used. Users should be able to control their data and have the option to opt-out of data collection.
-
Security is essential. Your app should be secure and free from any potential security risks. We recommend undergoing proper testing to identify and fix any potential vulnerabilities.
-
Ensure that your app complies with all RealWear policies and guidelines, which can be found here: https://realwear.com/legal.

We require that your app targets at least Android 8, API 27.
