Choosing the proper theme/template
Make sure your chosen theme/template for the application narrates your own app’s message to the target set of users. Is it too minimalistic, or is it retro-theme-based?

Integrate right app icons and symbols

Choose the proper language for the launch
You must use the proper language in the app preview and details (language spoken mostly by the targeted user audience). The right language choice and even multilingual details (for non-local app users) help scale the global reach of your app, taking it from the local app marketplace to the international app marketplace. Like Japanese would work better for reaching out to the Japanese target users in the local app market, a brilliant app marketing move that is to be used by the app publishers of Japan, while languages like English would work best for app users belonging to multiple different backgrounds of the world.

Keep multi-device layout preview in check
You must include the multiple device preview in the check if your app supports multiple devices.

The publisher would then yield better results for other app versions as well. same as the mobile version, all because of this single information point of the app preview layout contained within the app layouts on the published app store (Apple App Store).
