It doesn't seem to appear in a search of the UK Play Store (although can be accessed via the link above).
Is there usually a time delay for search indexing?
Apparently I should put something witty or profound in here.....

Time delay, and possibly some number of people downloading and giving it a rating, apparently.
Download it and give it a rating please, and have everyone you work with do the same.

The engineering problems are likely insurmountable. It would be like proposing to land a rocket booster section on a barge floating in the middle of the ocean.

I am not able to use the VCDS-Mobile Assistant directly.
I have not access to last button on many screens, so I cannot press Go back.
If I choose, Go to Browser, then it is possible to access.
I am using a Samsung s10e.
Here is one screenshot:

Niels, are you sure what you have there is the current version? It should say, "VCDS-Mobile Assistant", not just "VCDS-Mobile":

Hi Niels,
The green background looks odd and we just want to rule out the possibility that you have an old version installed (or perhaps 2 versions of Mobile). Do you get this confirmation when you click Go to Browser?

Also, does VCDS-Mobile Assistant show up at the top of any of the VCDS-Mobile pages?

No I had to short cuts 
Right click on short cut, App info, 0.02x old and 0.032 is working correct.
Is it possible to see the version number 0.032 in VCDS-Mobile ?

Hi Shaun,
just played a bit with the new assistant, I noticed two things:
- If you just search "VCDS" in the Google store you find a lot, but not the VCDS app. With "VCDS mobile" it worked. Could the reason the way it is written? As "one" word without blanks?
- If I look on my Android 7 Tablet under "installed apps" VCDS doesn't appear, but all other?! Is it a bug or feature? ;-)

Hi Ralf,
I believe Google won't make our app searchable until it receives more reviews ... but we are aware of the search problem and Shaun reached out to them already.
I believe the (lack-of) VCDS-Mobile Assistant app appearing under the Installed list of the Play Store is the same lack-of review problem. Shaun may be able to add more clarity if I'm incorrect.

It appears in a UK Play store search for "VCDS-Mobile" / "VCDS Mobile" now (and my installed apps list), but not for "VCDS".
I wonder if there are search keywords that can be added somewhere?
