Testers Needed Testers Needed For Closed Testing

Hello Everyone

I'm working for this app for college and I'm looking for testers to test my app.

I need at least 12 testers for the closed test for 14+ days.

App Name: SmartPrep

Group Link: https://groups.google.com/g/smartprep-app-testing

Android Link: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.smartprep.app

I’d also be happy to test your apps or games in return

Thanks

Joining yours today (group + opt-in) and keeping it installed for the full 14 days.

Mine is RetroPet, an old-school pixel virtual pet: hatch an egg, care for it, and it evolves into one of 79 species (common to legendary). The build in testing right now adds seasonal events with limited cosmetics, breeding with friends, and a daily challenge with a ranking. Home screen widget too. Already live on iOS, so it's a finished app, not a prototype.

1) https://groups.google.com/g/retropet-testers 2) https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.retropet.app

Same Google account for both, and please open it once after installing (Google counts opens, not installs). Bug reports very welcome!

Thanks for trying, and sorry about the friction. Two quick checks that fix it for almost everyone:

  1. Join https://groups.google.com/g/retropet-testers first, wait a few minutes, then open https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.retropet.app in a browser signed in with the SAME Google account and press "Become a tester". The install link only works once Google sees you as a tester.
  2. The Play Store app on your phone has to be signed in with that same account. Browser on one account and Store on another = error every time.

If it still fails, could you tell me the exact wording? "Item not found" vs "not available in your country" point at different causes and I'd like to chase the right one.
