I just published my first app days ago but I'm having troubles finding it with the search option. The app has its download page, it's compatible with my device but even if I search the exact name it doesn't show up in the search results. So is it just a matter of time, or I'm missing something?

We have an account in the playstore that published more than 50 apps everything works fine but this December something an expectedly changed All our apps are not available in playstore search
I know new Apps aren’t usually come top of the app search but this App isn’t new and has already downloaded 10K+ but it's not showing in the search even if I scroll down to bottom
Most of our apps have more reviews and downloads but I don’t know what’s going on.
Any ideas, please?
after the new Google Play Console surely something updated automatically geolocation.
All our apps are unavailable for 21 countries containing Somalia and Djibouti (a country I live) is part of that unavailable list.
All I do is update the list of Countries/Regions in the production to make apps available to all users
Thank you #Lemon for your comment
I have developed an App and published the same in google play store console. Even after many days the app is not getting listed in play store while searching using App Name.
I have tried searching using the project name. Its shows my app while searching.
It's normal. It need time, interactions and downloads to scale the list.
Don't worry
Please enlarge the image and the answer is there
I have just published my app to Google Play Store but I couldn't seem to search for it in the store and it will only appear when I search by developer name. Every time I search by the name, other apps with similar name tend to appear and my app won't even appear at the bottom. Why wouldn't it even appear at the bottom and how can I make it show?
It can sometimes take a little while for Google's app search index to update, especially for new apps. Give it a few days, if it still doesn't appear contact Google Play developer support.
Our app isn't showing up in the G Suite Marketplace search results whenever we search for it by name or via terms we know are in its description.
The direct link to our app's marketplace listing still works but it isn't showing up in the search results at all.
I've checked the manifest file and everything seems to be in order when I compared it to the sample here: https://developers.google.com/apps-marketplace/listing#resources_youll_need
Sidenote: I got in touch with Google Support via chat and even they couldn't point me to where exactly I should get help with this. Posting this here in hopes someone knows of a solution.
As I've read in this post, it appears the app is not allowed to be installed for non admin users so therefore the search results will not show the app. However, your app might take few minutes to several hours appear in search result. Check this Access Marketplace apps support page where it stated that "Most apps are available immediately after deployment. In some cases, there may be a delay of up to 24 hours before the application is displayed." Try to check on the next day and see if it works.
I renamed my app about 6 months ago, and I've been hearing reports every once in a while that some people cannot find my app in the market. Finally, someone I knew had the problem where I could look at it. My old name was a very unique name, my new name is a few common words. So it used to be:
com.company.uniquename : Uniquename
Now it is:
com.company.uniquename : Blee Blah Bloo
If I search the new name on my tablet, my app shows up 2nd behind a totally unrelated app. However if you search "Uniquename" it still shows up (as the only result). However on my friends device, nothing shows up if you search "Blee Blah Bloo". She scanned the QR code linking to my app and could download and run it fine. Do you have any thoughts as to why it wouldn't be showing up on some devices. It is a high maturity app, could that have anything to do with it?
It takes some time for google to re-index your app after you rename it. I expect given a few days, your app will show in related search queries, also taking into account the popularity of your app.
