I want to publish the app to Play Store. But when reviewing the release I got an error like this. But there is no solution or documentation to read more about the error.

    Don't you just love when Google does this? I had the same problem and couldn't find any solution. Thanks to marcinpl87!!! – Swissdude Aug 18 '21 at 10:26

    yep, Google did it again! They never fail to mess with developers with new changes they bring. Classic Google! – VipiN Negi Aug 25 '21 at 15:23

    I can't believe there's no link in the error message to tell us where to set up it... I was so lost when I encountered it.. – KunYu Tsai Oct 15 '21 at 07:44

  1. Click on Policy -> App content in the Google Play Console (at the bottom of the left menu).

  2. In your browser, you should have a URL like:

    https://play.google.com/console/u/0/developers/.../app/.../app-content/summary

  3. Remove summary from the URL, and paste regulated-health-apps instead.

  4. You should see a form like:

    Form

  5. Select the appropriate checkbox(es), save that form, and publish your app again.

    Today I just needed to click on Policy...App Content in the bottom left. There was a section at the bottom for COVID-19 contact tracing and status apps that needed to be filled in. – Chris G. Aug 25 '21 at 16:01

On Play console, We require to declare that whether our app is related to Covid-19 or not.

Official Guide

Go to the App content page (Policy > App content) in Play Console, and provide the required information in the "COVID-19 contact tracing and status apps" section.
