Update the store listing of your app

After your app is published on the Overwolf Appstore, you may update your store listing.
In this article, we'll go over the process of updating your app store listing using the Overwolf developers console.

Note that the process described in this article is only available for apps already published on the Overwolf app store.

Save your work

Once done, don't forget to click the save button on the bottom of the screen. Navigation to another tab or page, will cause the loss of any unsaved data.

Changes submitted will take up to ~30min to process and go live.

Login to the developers console

After logging to the Overwolf developers console, navigate to Store Listing:

Update store listing

The Store Listing tab lets you update the app details properties displayed in the Overwolf Appstore, including the app's description, screenshots, and more. Several fields are read-only properties like name, author, and app visibility. Other than that, you can control all your store app's info through this page.

Notes

A few properties are read-only, and cannot be edited. These are: App name, author, and app visibility.

Name and Author

Read-only properties: The app's UID.

App visibility

When an app is set to hidden it becomes "invisible" to users. Only users with a direct download link will be able to access your one-app page in the Overwolf app store and download the app. This setting is usually used during the pre-launch period for final tests.

This property is read-only, if you wish to change your app status to hidden please contact the Overwolf team.
