As a marketer, you have the opportunity to utilize this space for promoting your brand's offers, new deals, content updates, or features, depending on your business.


So the question is -  How to Add Desktop Banner Image in Google Play Store App Listing?


Answer - In the Google Play Store, there isn't a dedicated option to add a banner image. However, when you include a YouTube video link in the 'Video' section of your main store listing, the video's thumbnail image automatically serves as the banner image when viewing the listing on a desktop device.


You'll also notice a 'Trailer' button located to the right of this image. Both the desktop banner image and the thumbnail image of this video are identical. 


So you should add a thumbnail image with clear message that you want to promote in this banner image.
