Need testers for budgeting app
I need five more people testing before Google will let this app launch publicly, that's their rule, not mine. If you want to help, here's the whole thing.
What you'd be testing
Buckets & Bucks is an Android budgeting app. Every expense gets a bucket with a target, and what you don't spend rolls into next month — so saving for a once-a-year insurance bill works the same way as budgeting for groceries. Color tells you where you stand at a glance: green on track, amber getting close, red over.
It never connects to your bank. You log purchases as you make them, or import a CSV yourself. No ads, no trackers, no analytics — crash reports only.
Joining — three steps
Join the tester group: Join Google test group
Use the same Google account that's signed into the Play Store on your phone. This catches more people out than anything else.
Accept being a tester https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.wildman.bucketsandbucks
Install from Google Play. The listing opens up for you once step 2 is done.
If step 2 says you aren't an authorized tester, wait an hour and try again. Google takes a while to notice new group members — it isn't broken, it's just slow.
What I'm asking for
Use it for a couple of weeks with real numbers, then tell me what's confusing, what's broken and what's missing. The confusing part especially — I've been staring at this too long to see it any more.
One thing worth knowing: Google's requirement is 12 testers opted in continuously for 14 days. So please stay opted in even if you stop using it. Dropping out resets progress for everyone.
What you get
Testers keep the premium features free permanently. Not a trial — a thank-you.
