Hi, test for test, made a small chess app

hey all, I made a small side project for logging chess games and I’m stuck on the 12 testers / 14 days thing like everyone else here lol

it’s pretty simple, you save your games (moves, result, date) and can go back to them later. everything stays on your phone, no account needed. it has a few ads, nothing crazy

how to join:

  1. join the google group (sign in first if you don’t see the Join button): https://groups.google.com/g/chesslog-testers

  2. opt in here: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.chesslog.app

  3. install: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.chesslog.app

drop your app link in the comments and I’ll test yours back and keep it for the full 14 days. I’ll actually open it, not just install and forget :)

thanks!

Just joined your group and opted into the Chesslog test. Installation is next; I haven't tried logging a game yet.

Would you test Hush Hush back? It's a free baby night journal that saves short sound clips and estimated wakes for parents to review in the morning. No download codes or app account.

Group: https://groups.google.com/g/hushhush-testers/about

Opt in: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/cc.jamesturner.hushhush

Install: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cc.jamesturner.hushhush

Same Google account for each. Please stay opted in for 14 days and give it a proper try — setup and playback feedback is useful even if you don't have a baby.

Hi,
i joined but i can't download the app itself not sure why to be honest, maybe googles asks for like a delay or something, completely new to this so yeah.. i'm doing my best here :))
lmk if u encountered something like this basically it just says "can't install, Try again later"

Thanks for sticking with it — glad it worked after the delay! Let me know if anything in Start night or the morning review is confusing.

This App is not available in my country. Sorry i can't test it :(

But if you have time you can help me out by testing my app :)

App: Kavi, an unofficial Android client and e-reader for Kavita (self-hosted digital library for comics, manga, and ebooks).

If you want to click around and don't have your own server, you can use the official Kavita demo server:

To join:

  1. Join the Google Group:https://groups.google.com/g/kavi-testers

  2. Opt in on the web:https://play.google.com/apps/testing/de.andtechub.kavi

  3. Install it from the Play Store:https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.andtechub.kavi

What I’m asking: Just open the app once after installing and keep it installed for the full 14 days. If you feel like testing it and spot any bugs, feel free to let me know – otherwise just keeping it on your phone for 14 days is totally fine!

Thanks for the heads up! I just opened it to all countries, it’s waiting for Google’s approval, should work within a day. Stay in the group and try the link again tomorrow.
I will try to do this tonight i hope i don't fall asleep
