    I have a very simple educational app that I would like to sell on the store. It is made with unity and all the UI is scale-able for different screens. I know that android studio is more suited for this but I want to use unity. Does the Play store allow this? Also, does unity use more battery in the background than android studio for an UI only program? Thank you

    Yes. Why should they not allow this?

    Yes, because it is a game engine and therefore has a different approach how to render things. It uses the graphics card all the time relatively intensively, not only when the UI has to be updated. Also it does a lot of update calls in the background which are probably not necessary for your application.
    As a benefit you have more possibilities to make it look nice.
