CI uploads apps/android/store/whatsnew/whatsnew-en-US as each Play build's "What's new", but nothing in AGENTS.md told an agent to update it. The guidance lived only in apps/android/store/README.md, so a change could ship under the previous version's note.

This adds a paragraph to the "Shipping to Play" section:

  • A change someone would notice on their phone updates the note in the same pull request.
  • It's written for the person holding the phone, not as a commit subject, and stays under Play's 500 characters.
  • It covers everything since versionName last changed, and starts over when the version is bumped (which is what the 0.2.0 and 0.2.1 notes did).
  • A refactor, a test, or a fix nobody saw leaves it alone.

PushThat just adopted the same publish flow and the same rule (MakeRocketGoNow/pushthat#12).

Docs only: no code changes.

The note in `apps/android/store/whatsnew/` is uploaded with every Play build, but nothing an agent reads said to update it, so a change could ship under the previous version's "What's new". The guidance lived only in `apps/android/store/README.md`, which an agent has no reason to open.

The "Shipping to Play" section now says a change someone would notice on their phone updates the note in the same pull request, how it accumulates until `versionName` changes, and what leaves it alone. PushThat adopted the same rule when it took over this publish flow.
