How to submit to Flathub

  1. Open the Flathub submission page

    This is the page makers use to add a product.

  2. Create an account

    Flathub asks you to sign up before you can submit.

  3. Have your assets ready

    Name, tagline, description, logo and screenshots. The checklist below covers what to prepare so you can fill the form in one go.

  4. Fill in the form carefully

    Pick the most specific category the form offers and write the description for the people who browse Flathub (Linux desktop users installing apps via Flatpak), not for search engines.

  5. Wait for review

    A person reviews submissions, so it can take a while. Once it’s live, check the link on your listing points to the right page.

Tips for Flathub

  • Open the submission PR against the new-pr branch of flathub/flathub, not master.
  • Build and run the app locally with flatpak-builder and run the linter first to speed up review.
  • Reviewers must be able to test full functionality, so provide access to anything behind a login.

From Flathub’s own guidelines and pages, in our words.

What to prepare

The basics every directory asks for, plus what matters most for plugin and template marketplaces.

  • Product name and a one-line tagline (about 60 characters)
  • A short description (1–2 sentences) and a longer one (a short paragraph)
  • Square logo, at least 256×256 px, PNG or SVG
  • 2–3 screenshots at a consistent size
  • The exact page you want the link to point to
  • Pricing model (free, freemium or paid) and a contact email
  • A build that passes the platform’s own review rules (read them first)
  • Screenshots taken inside the host platform, showing your add-on in use
  • Support and documentation links, and a changelog if you have one
  • Pricing in the marketplace’s format, and its revenue share if it takes one

Is Flathub worth it?

Good for your SEO foundation

Flathub reviews listings by hand and the listing link we inspected was followed. That combination is what makes a directory link worth having for a new site.

  • Tranco rank #10,977: an established site, inside the top 100,000.
  • A person reviews submissions, so expect a wait and a real quality bar.
  • Free to list, so the only cost is your time.

This verdict is worked out from the facts above with fixed rules (link type, review, price, Tranco rank), not paid for. The directory has no say in it.
