How Do I Rebrand My Mobile App for My Radio Station?
This article is intended for radio stations that are rebranding or changing formats. Requests to rebuild a mobile app with a new station brand must come from your Company Administrator.
Before You Begin
- Before SoCast can build and publish new mobile apps to your account, ensure there are no outstanding Apple App Store agreements on your company account.
- Log in to your App Store Connect account and confirm there are no notices appearing at the top of the page.
- If you are updating apps for more than three individual stations, please email support@socastdigital.com with the total number of stations to be updated. We will provide you with instructions for submitting all the new image files.
- Please allow a minimum of 5 business days for development, app store creation, and app submission.
For Apps Changing Station Branding (App Name, Description, and Metadata Remain the Same)
Please email the following to support@socastdigital.com:
- App Icon: This is the main image used for your mobile app, appearing as the app load screen and icon on mobile devices. Typically, this is your station logo centered on a solid color background.
Requirements: 2732x2732px, PNG format.
- Google Play Feature Graphic: This decorative promotional image is used on the Google Play Store.
Requirements: 1024x500px, JPEG or PNG format, no transparency.
Note: If you do not provide a feature graphic, SoCast will resize your App Icon, but the image may appear distorted. We recommend providing a proper feature graphic.
- Android Notification Icon: This icon displays in the status bar, notification menu, and lock screen on Android devices. If not provided or if it does not meet the specifications below, a default microphone icon will be used.

For Apps Changing Branding/Format with a New Name, Description, or Metadata
