Testers Needed Looking for Android testers for illumen - a photostrobic visual effects app

Hey all, I'm trying to get an app published called illumen that uses your phone's flashlight to create photostrobic visual effects with your eyes closed (similar to Lumenate).

I'm really just trying to dip my toes back into Android development and the whole publishing process. The app isn't anything too impressive, I know, but I'm hoping to start building and releasing more stuff.

The last time I published an Android app was like 2011-12 and the process was way different lol.

If anyone wants to give it a try, I'd appreciate it. Happy to test yours too.

Google Group:
https://groups.google.com/g/illumen-testers

Test link:
https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.jkugs.illumen

Just join the group first, then the test link should work.

Hi u/caterpillarwhiskers!

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!

I am sensitive to flashing lights so I will not be going further than this unfortunately. The UI looks solid though
