App Center Approval Guidelines

To ensure the best experience for our users, all apps must meet the following quality standards in order to be approved.

App-like Experience

Your application should provide a native app experience with intuitive navigation, responsive design, and functionality that goes beyond a simple website. Users should feel like they're using a dedicated application, not browsing a website.

Provide a native app-like experience with a consistent look and feel
Implement smooth navigation and transitions between pages
Avoid stuffing your app with unnecessary text and keywords, traditional SEO is not effective inside the app and it degrades the user experience
Same as above, avoid creating marketing landing pages inside the app

Functional & Complete

Your app must be complete (no missing features, broken links, or other issues) and work as expected. We will not approve apps that are not fully functional or have significant usability issues. Make sure to test your app thoroughly throughout its development process.

Ensure your app is fully functional and works as expected and advertised
If your app is still in development or incomplete, it won't be approved until it is fully functional
Test your app thoroughly throughout its development process

Meaningful Purpose

Your app must solve real problems, enhance productivity, or provide genuine entertainment value to users in the Puter ecosystem. Applications should offer substantial utility and contribute meaningfully to the user experience.

Original Work & Licensing

Your app must be your original work or properly licensed. If using open-source components, provide appropriate attribution and ensure compliance with their licenses. Apps that infringe on copyrights, trademarks, or other intellectual property will be rejected.

Open-source apps are welcome but make sure you are not infringing on any licenses
Starting July 1st, 2025, publishing somebody else's website as an app (via hotlinking) is no longer allowed

Icon Guidelines

Include a unique, professionally designed icon that clearly represents your app's purpose and stands out in the App Center. The icon should be high-resolution, visually appealing, and instantly recognizable.

Avoid using generic icons
Avoid using stock images
Avoid using outline icons
Avoid using icons with transparent backgrounds
Try to avoid using text in the icons unless it's absolutely necessary. Do not include app name or call-to-action text in the icon, unless it's essential for the app's purpose
