How long until appears on Google Play

So went through all to submit Android app and all seems to have gone well. How long until it should show up in a search on Google Play? Steve

Also, I see its status is "draft." What does that mean?

Sorry to ask before I really check it out. It told me I had to put in a privacy url, I said no, then it said ready to publish and I said yes and then it said it's published and may take a while before appearing.

Have to say, submitting an app to Android store loads simpler than to Apple.

No approval makes it quick and easy! Usually shows after around 4 hrs or so. Been a while for me though.

I was shocked; about an hour, maybe two. From submission to listing. Apple? It's been 3 days and I'm still awaiting review. heh. Cheers! -- Smug

I'm shocked too - also about an hour. My three on Apple took an average of 2 weeks. However, Google's laissez faire attitude on accepting apps has lead to some pretty offensive (to some) apps getting on which would never have made it past Apple's review so that's the other side of the coin.
