I already have an app published in Google Play, and now I would like to unpublish it for anyone but a set of known beta testers. My problem is that if I unpublish it, it seems it also gets unpublished for beta testers (since the beta testers feature needs a published app).
What could I do? In other words, what I want to do is:
631
Open Play Console. Select an app. Go to Release > Setup > Advanced settings. On the App Availability tab, select Unpublish.
Open Play Console and go to the Device catalog page (Release > Reach and devices > Device catalog). Select the device model which you wish to exclude and go to the details page. At the top right of your screen, select Exclude device. The device model you selected in step 2, including all variants, will now be excluded.
You can release your Android applications several ways. Usually, you release applications through an application marketplace such as Google Play, but you can also release applications on your own website or by sending an application directly to a user.
Under the APK tab select Switch to Advanced Mode Then deactivate the APK in production.
Switch over to the BETA TESTING tab and upload a new APK for the beta
After the APK has been uploaded select Manage list of testers... and add the Google+ community.
When you are ready to go back to production just simply click the Promote to Prod button
