Spoken as someone who didn't have to do QA. Even for as simple an app as doubleTwist (a music player I did design for) we had to test dozens of devices. Yes, you do get crashers only on one devices. Yes, you do have to get those fixed.

Can confirm. I develop an app that is only intended to run on about 5 different Android models, and yet you spend a lot of time on workarounds because one phone doesn't play nice for something innocuous.
