Ways to bring old users back into new apps

AppsApps
edited May 2016 in General Discussion
Hi guys,

My major account in GP was banned a year ago and since then I have not recovered. But due to my severe usage of alternative stores, I still get good downloads of those old apps and I still update them from time to time.
I am thinking to try to use those older apps to bring traffic to my new, better-made, better monetized apps which are live in GP. How could I do it?

Maybe I could use the area for Launch Notice to create a message that the app is no longer supported and instead link them, if they want, to a live one in GP? Can we do it? What should the link format be for direct-to-GP delivery? And how to make it like if they do not want, they can still proceed?

Any other ideas on the matter? Maybe use the Website activity for something similar?

    I'm not sure I follow you? The banned apps in one GP account you cannot bring them in a new one, it's a sure way to get the new one banned too.

    What alternative stores have you found to work the best?

    Samsung, amazon, getjar.

    Guys you dont have ideas over what I am thinking to do? Maybe link to a website with my new apps listed in there and link to GP? Would it be safer?

    @anteos use the launch notice function in andromo with your message and link

    Make the features limited on the third party store and tell them if they want the full features, download it from Google Play.

    I decided towards a different approach from the Launch notice because that one is only shown once.
    I use custom page with message that the app is no longer supported and if they want hassle-free experience they should get another app from "another developer" and link them to similar app of my other GP account or, if there is no similar app, I link to the account itself hoping they see something they like there.

    I placed the Custom page Number 1 in sequence in the dashboard, with a strong exclamation mark so they definitely notice it.

    To me it sounds like the best solution.
