Subreddit rules check
r/android
Can you promote here?
The rules clearly permit sharing your own product or project. Follow the format norms below, disclose that it is yours, and lead with substance: allowed is not the same as welcomed for low-effort pitches.
From the rules · Developers may post their own apps only as detailed self-posts from accounts ≥3 months old with a reasonable r/Android posting history and must actively engage in the thread; website/blog/YouTube owners are generally not allowed.
Links
The rules clearly allow links. A plain-text mention still often outperforms a URL from a young account.
What this community rewards
Dominant post formats: news, discussion, showcase
Use the original, factual headline (don’t editorialize). Post in English; link posts are fine for news, or use a self-post with a short summary for discussion. Tone: neutral/technical. Typical length: short titles, brief bodies for context. What wins: timely news, leaks, feature rundowns, analysis, and thoughtful discussion. What gets removed: low-effort reposts, blog‑spam, affiliate links, and obvious self-promotion that breaks the dev rules.
Arriving in the local format matters: cross-posting the same text everywhere reads as tourist instantly. The wider method is in the Reddit playbook.
Classified mechanically from the community's published rules and recent top posts, last checked July 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/android's rules page before posting anything that matters.
Thread Otter checks this before every send
These profiles power the product: promo-banned communities never receive a promotional draft, drafts arrive in the local format, and a fact-check gate plus human pacing protect the account doing the talking.
