Google Play: Buzzwords missing to find DS #1206

Hi,

when users try to search for a secure messenger in gplay users havent even the chance to find DS.

When you search for "secure messenger", "encrypted messenger" , etc DS doesnt even show up on the huge results list. I would be nice to optimize the search result for DS!

thanks for pointing this out.

currently, we're still in the beta-track.
as far as i know, apps are not suggested in this mode at all and you will find "delta chat" only when really searching for "delta chat".

but, as we want to leave the beta-track soon™ i've taken this issue as a chance to add some tags, this is what i've done:

Hi,

good start.

I dont know how google handles tags. Maybe "privacy & security" should be seperate tags? Maybe "open source", "autocrypt", "encrypted" and "messenger" would also be nice.

THX!

I dont know how google handles tags.

the tags are predefined and there are not that many tags at all. the existing tags are rather coarse therefore.
