Tile Image:
Nothing can draw customers more than an attractive, unique and eye catching tile image. One of the most important tips is to keep it simple and relevant to the aim of your app. Follow the design principles and make sure that the text is easy to read.

Name:
The name of your app should represent exactly what the app is all about. At the same time, it should be unique and interesting. However, keep it simple and free of symbols.

Description:
