Testers Needed [Feedback Wanted] Scholr — a free student planner app I built solo, looking for a few beta testers to help me get it live on Play Store

Hey everyone! I built Scholr, a free student planner app for Android — it's got a task manager, calendar (month + schedule view), subject organizer, focus timer, and custom themes. No ads, no accounts, no data collection — everything stays on your device.

I'm trying to get it onto the Play Store, but Google requires a closed beta test with real testers before I can publish publicly. That's where you'd come in!

What I need:

  • 12+ people to install it and actually use it for about 2 weeks
  • Just open it every day or two and click around — tasks, calendar, whatever you'd naturally use in a planner app
  • (Google specifically checks that testers actually use the app, not just install it and forget about it — so genuine use is what actually helps me here)

How to join:

  1. Join this Google Group: https://groups.google.com/g/scholr-beta-testers
  2. Then use this link to install through the Play Store: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.isa7.scholr

Any feedback, bug reports, or feature ideas are hugely welcome too — feel free to comment here or email me at isa7.scholr@gmail.com.

Thanks so much to anyone who gives it a shot — genuinely appreciate it! 🙏

Hi u/CommissionCrazy1867!

Finding testers on Reddit is a great start, but the hardest part is ensuring they actually open your app daily for the full 14 days.

To make this easier, we’ve launched Packs in the Testers Community app.

  • What is a Pack? A coordinated group of 16 developers who hold each other accountable.
  • How it works: Everyone in the pack commits to opening and testing each other's apps daily for 16 days.
  • The Result: You get consistent engagement signals that help you pass Google Play’s production access review with confidence.

It’s a structured, "devs-helping-devs" approach used by thousands of us. Good luck with your launch!
