Google play console remove app from Publishing overview

Question

Google play has removed my app from production. I have made some changes and want to upload a new version to Internal testing.

In the Publishing overview section I can see both versions. The old version in the production and the new fixed version in internal testing.

I want to Send for review my new version, but I don't want to send my old version.

How to remove the old version from the Publishing overview? Can I specify to review only the new version?

Answer 1

I have contacted Google development support:

Unfortunately, we cannot deactivate the non-compliant version on your behalf. You will need to release a new compliant APK on the production track in order to deactivate the non-compliant APK. We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused.

Answer 2

You can promote your internal testing version to production with 1% users rollout. In that way, most users won't face the new version, and you will be able to override the old version review.

Steps:

• go to Google Play console
• select Internal testing from left menu
• select Promote release dropdown menu
• click on production
• write "1" in rollout and release
