Google Play Search - Android Apps and Games

How long does it take to have an app show up in Google Play Search Results?
I published my app 1 week ago, and I still can't find it in Google Play Search Results when I search for the exact Name of the App, I browse all the apps, until the end of the page, and I can't find it.
The only way to find it, is when I use the Package name of the app. (But obviously nobody will search with that term). I just tried this to make sure the app is actually published.
Is it just a matter of time? Or is there a way to optimize it, and have it spidered by Google Play Search? I also can't find any info about this in Google Developer Help or searching the XDA forums.
Thanks.

What is the name of your app and name under which it is published

Clever tip for chrome users reading about apps.

So as most of you do, I'm reading about apps in XDA and various other android blogs. I kept running into the whole "highlight-app-name-copy-app-name-open-new-tap-go-to-google-play-click-search-field-paste-app-name-hit-search" game and it thought there has to be a better way.
Enter "Context Search": https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/dbpfafcplnjmakknnonpegphpmpmhjhj?utm_source=gmail
Add Google play, you don't need the "https://" (see screenshot). Now i can just highlight the app name, click down arrow, choose Google Play and BAM it goes to google play store and searches for the app name.
Go ahead and try it. Its prettly slick.
Open http://play.google.com, right click in the search box, add as a search engine. I use play as keyword. Want to search app named QWERTY: Ctrl+t, play TAB QWERTY INTRO.
I'm a keyboard user when on a computer.

Oh nice! I never used the TAB to search in chrome. This may now change. Thanks!

[Q] My app is hard to find in the play store

Hello,
1 Month ago I've uploaded an app i developed to the play store.
The app is still hard to find in the play store.
It's even quite impossible to find it. What can i do to improve this?
The app has an unique name, doenederland.
When i search for doenederland, it's not in the first 250 results. When you search with "doenederland" it's the first hit. But people don't search with the "".
Please advise.
Thanks!

Nobody any suggestions?

Finding developer name for an app

You might think that after 10-ish years of using Android, I'd know this...
How do I find the developer name of a specific app in Oreo? I don't see it in Settings > Apps > (app name), or in the app's setting under About. The only way I've found in general, is long press in the app icon the tap the Play Store icon. But some apps are not in the Google play store.
Specifically, I have two app call Contacts. One I know is Google. I can confirm this using the Play Store icon as described above. I haven't another way. The other, I'm 97% sure is Samsung. Tapping it's Play Store icon opens the Play Store to a page that says "Item not found."
I can find version very easily. I can also find the license info. Why is the dev name so hard to find?
