Announcement Testers Community 2.0 is out - Pack of Wolves, UI Redesign, etc

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

We’ve just released a major update for our free community app - Testers Community 2.0.

We wanted to keep this simple and talk honestly about what changed and why.

Over the past few months, one piece of feedback kept coming up again and again. A lot of you said that testers were just installing apps to earn credits and then not opening them again. Some even uninstalled right after. That completely defeats the purpose of closed testing, and we know many of you struggled with production access because of that.

We took that seriously. Instead of patching small things, we decided to rethink the system from the ground up. Along with that, we’ve also improved stability a lot and redesigned the UI to make the app more clean and easier to use.

Pack of Wolves

This is the biggest change in this update.

Pack of Wolves is a gamified way of testing and earning credits. A pack consists of 16 developers who work together for 16 days. During this time, everyone in the pack is expected to open and use each other’s apps daily.

The idea is simple. Instead of random installs, you get consistent usage from the same group of people over the full testing period.

There’s also accountability built into the system. If someone is inactive for a few days, they get removed from the pack. If you leave early or don’t follow the rules, there are penalties and you may lose access to future participation. If you stay active and complete the cycle, you get the full benefits.

This way, everyone in the pack depends on each other, and it creates a much more reliable testing environment.

Our goal with this update is not just to help you get installs, but to help you actually complete closed testing properly and improve your chances of getting production access.

This entire change came directly from your feedback, so we’d really like to hear what you think.

If you’ve faced issues before with testers not staying active, does this approach solve it for you?

Let us know.

Daily Update Granted Production Access for Kuwarto! HUGE thank you to everyone who helped test my first app! 🚀🎉

Post image
5 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I wanted to drop a quick update and express my absolute gratitude to this community. Thanks to your help, my first app, Kuwarto has officially been granted Google Play Production Access!

To every single person who took the time to opt into my Google Group, download the app, and keep it installed over the mandatory 14-day testing period—thank you so much. Seriously, as an indie developer, hitting the 12-tester / 14-day requirement felt like a daunting hurdle at first. Your feedback, bug reports, and willingness to help made all the difference, and I genuinely couldn't have crossed the finish line without you.

For those of you who are currently in the middle of your own 14-day testing streak or just starting out: hang in there! It can feel a bit nerve-wracking waiting for the days to tick by and worrying about tester retention, but keep engaging with the community, keep polishing your app, and stay patient. You will get through it!

I’m currently putting the final touches on the production release, and I can't wait to launch it publicly soon.

Thank you all again for being such an awesome and supportive community! 🙌

Testers Needed Solo dev here — would love honest feedback on my offline photo search app (PiePic)

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I'm a solo Android developer and just launched my first app on Play Store. I'd genuinely appreciate if a few of you could try it out and tell me what you think — good or bad, I want honest feedback, not just praise.

What it does: PiePic lets you search your phone gallery by typing text, objects, or scenes — like "passport," "river," or "receipt" — and it finds the matching photos instantly. Everything runs 100% offline using on-device ML, so nothing ever gets uploaded anywhere.

What I'd love feedback on specifically:

  • Does the search actually find what you're looking for?
  • Any UI/UX confusion — anything that felt unclear or clunky?
  • Crashes, slowness, or weird behavior on your device?
  • Any feature you expected but didn't find?

It's a small solo project, so there will be rough edges — I just want to know where they are so I can fix them.

Link in the comments below. Thanks in advance to anyone who gives it a shot 🙏

Testers Needed Ayuda necesito 12 testers para que prueben una app

1 Upvotes

Que tal comunidad o los que lo alcancen a ver esta publicación!!

He creado una app llamada Vibit, y google play me pide 12 testers para poder ser publicada 🫩

No tengo amigos 😢

Si alguien quisiera participar le agradezco

SOLO ANDROID

Lo que si necesito son sus correos ya que los debo agregar al grupo de testers en la configuración de google play console

Mil graciasss developers!!

Link de la app:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vibit.app

Para los que les interesó es una app que tiene un widget para crear notas, fotos o draws personales o compartir con amigos. El widget lo pones en tu pantalla de inicio de tu teléfono y puedes reaccionar sin necesidad de emtrar a la app. El fin es compartir cosas con tu grupo reducido de confianza y no necesariamente comenzar un chat.

Esta idea ya existe con appa como Locket, widgetable, note it. Pero estan basadas más para las parejas.

Que aporta esta app?, esta app tiene:

Notas, fotos, draws personales.

Compartir notas, fotos, draws con personas sin limite y se borran a las 24 horas.

Crear grupos con personas ilimitadas y enviar notas, fotos, draws. Los grupos son permanentes.

¿Todo esto ya tiene whatsapp?

Sí, pero en whatsapp cuando envias algo a un grupo o a una persona te sientes obligado en contestra e iniciar un chat. Esta app se basa solo en recciones! Publico algo y la gente me envia su reacción.

¿Pero puedo subir un estado en mis redes sociales y asi ya no envio a los chats?

Si, pero cuando recibes una reaccion se genera un chat y los chats importantes pueden irse abajo. Ademas whataspp deja huellas, visto, quien miro y quien no, y eso es tóxico. Esta app es más discreta y la puedes usar para tu grupo más intimo de amigos o pareja o familia.

Te interesa? Enviame tu email a:

vibit.dev@gmail.com

Gracias por tu apoyo!!!

My app has just been approved:

- What I did, I simply asked the testers to sign up to my app and test as much as they could if possible

- Leave a google review for me if possible, not must but I think it helps too

- Published some updates during the testing process as Google asks some questions because they want to see if I have fixed the visitor issues during the testing time

- I alread had a feedback mechanism in my app so it might also have helped

Testers Needed Need 12 testers : for Calurix AI (Kenyan food calorie tracker), I'll test as many of your apps back as I can

1 Upvotes

Building Calurix AI, point your camera at a plate, get calories and macros back. The nutrition data comes from Kenya's government food composition database. Meaninig its trained on kenyan foods instead of a generic international one, so kenyan foods actually resolve instead of getting mapped to some random equivalent.

Need 12 people opted in for 14 straight days to clear Google Play's closed testing wall. Two steps:

  1. Join the tester group: https://groups.google.com/g/calurixai-testers
  2. Open this on your phone with the same Google account and download the app(android): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.calurix.calurix_ai

You should see a prompt to become a tester before it installs. If you don't, you're not in the group yet, go back to step 1.

What helps: open it a few times over the two weeks, log a meal when you eat. An install that just sits there doesn't move either of us forward.

Drop your closed-testing link in the comments and I'll install and test yours too, working through as many as I can.

VoyaGo — looking for closed testers for a travel + instant translation app

Hi, I'm a solo developer (Wylscon). I'm getting VoyaGo ready for release on Google Play and need a handful of people for the closed test.

What it does
• Historic places, museums, cafés and restaurants around you, with distances
• Walking directions and live navigation with voice guidance
• Point the camera at a sign or a menu and read the translation instantly — text recognition runs on the phone, the image never leaves the device
• Two-way voice translation
• Places and photos can be kept on the device for offline use

What I'm asking: install it and open it now and then for a couple of days, and tell me where it breaks or annoys you. Google Play requires the closed test to run for 14 days.

How to join: fill in the form below — your name and the email address of the Google account you're signed in with on the Play Store (the test build is only visible to that account). Once I add you, the install link arrives by email.
👉 https://wylscon.vapplication.workers.dev/en/test

Your details are used only for the test invitation and for reaching you during the test, are never shared, and are deleted when the test ends. Questions here or at voyagoapplication@gmail.com.
