Do new apps for android receive exposure the first time you publish it like apple does?

reginald.bernardin

I want to know when i first put my app onto android do i have that new app window timeframe to receive exposure like apple does? Cause when you publish your game in the app store for apple you your considered new and your on top of the list for new apps. Is this the same for android? Because i want to prepare my app for promotion before i publish it so it can receive more exposure...
