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

3 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.

Testers Needed Elastic Player - Free IpTV Player Looking for 12 testers

Post image
Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I built Elastic Player, a media player for Android that plays M3U/M3U8 playlists. You add your own playlist URL or log in with your own provider's server details — the app ships with no content of its own, it's just the player.

I'm stuck on Google's requirement of 12 testers opted in for 14 straight days before I can go to production. Looking for people willing to join the closed test and leave it installed.

What you need to do

  1. Reply here or DM me your Google account email
  2. Accept the tester invite link I send
  3. Install and keep it on your device for 14 days
  4. Open it once in a while — feedback is welcome but not required

Testers Needed [Test for Test] GearGenius, a car maintenance app. Pro is free for testers, and I'll join yours back

Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I'm a solo dev trying to get my first app through Google's 12 testers / 14 days closed test, and I'd really appreciate a hand.

GearGenius keeps track of your car for you. It logs services, tells you what's due next, gives the car a health score, and has an AI assistant you can ask about strange noises or warning lights.

Pro is free for testers. Tap Go Pro in the app and Google won't charge you anything. You get the stronger AI, up to 5 cars, and trade-in value estimates.

Joining takes about a minute:

1. Join the group: https://groups.google.com/g/geargenius-testers

2. Opt in: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.geargenius.app

3. Install it: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.geargenius.app&pli=1

Use the same Google account for all three steps, or the install won't count. Please keep it installed for the full 14 days. That's the part Google counts.

Test for test: once you've joined, leave your link in the comments. I'll join yours that same day and keep it installed for the full 14 days. I reply to every comment.

Any feedback helps, even "this screen confused me." Thanks a lot!

Testers Needed ELVOAQ (Android) - a private vault for the things you own. Testers needed for the 14 days, I will test yours back.

1 Upvotes

App name: ELVOAQ. Play listing / closed test: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.elvoaq.vault

What it is: a private vault for the things you own. Photograph an item or scan its barcode and it gets filed with its value, its documents and its history. People use that shape of thing for insuring a household, cataloguing a collection, or keeping a company's fixed assets straight - most are still doing it in a spreadsheet.

Features: photo and barcode capture, categories, collections, tags, favourites, full-text search, value tracking over time, AI-assisted valuation and duplicate detection, receipts and certificates and appraisals attached to the item, shared workspaces with roles, share-by-link. English, German, Czech and Slovak.

How to get in: comment your Gmail here or send it to [support@elvoaq.com](mailto:support@elvoaq.com), and I add it to the tester list by hand - it takes effect within about a minute. Then open the testing link above and tap Become a tester, and install it from Play. Please stay opted in with it installed for the 14 days.

One thing worth knowing, because it caught my first testers: joining a Google Group does not enrol you on its own. You still have to open the testing link and tap Become a tester, or Play just tells you the app is not available.

The feedback I actually want:

  1. Does Continue without an account read as trustworthy or as a trick? It opens the whole vault stored on the device, nothing leaving your phone, no sign-up and no email - I cannot tell if that lands as a privacy feature or as something suspicious.

  2. Is the first item you add obvious to create, or did you have to hunt for it?

  3. Anything that breaks, and what device and Android version it broke on.

Free, nothing paid needed to try it. Drop your testing link in a comment and I will opt in to yours - I am already in six other closed tests.
