Stuck at Play Store's
12-Tester, 14-Day Rule?
We're Your Testers.

Every bug is documented in a structured report: severity (critical / major / minor / cosmetic), exact steps to reproduce, device and OS version, screenshot or screen recording, and a fix recommendation. After your team resolves the reported bugs, we run a re-test sign-off pass at no additional charge to confirm all critical and major issues are resolved before launch. We don't just hand you a list and disappear.

Yes. For teams with an existing CI/CD pipeline (GitHub Actions, Bitrise, Fastlane), we can run automated smoke tests as part of each build trigger, with manual exploratory testing layered on top. We support both one-time pre-launch engagements and ongoing QA retainers with per-sprint test cycles. We'll discuss the best integration approach based on your current workflow during onboarding.

Automated tools catch regressions in known flows — they cannot catch the UX issues a real user notices, the edge-case crashes on specific Android OEMs, or the performance degradation under poor rural network conditions. Our 12 human testers bring real-world usage patterns, regional language input, varying network conditions, and device-specific behaviour that no automated tool replicates. We combine both: automation for regression, humans for exploratory and scenario testing. This is how we catch the bugs that matter.

We need four things: (1) a testable build — APK/AAB for Android, IPA or TestFlight invite for iOS; (2) a feature list or user flow overview (a rough list in plain English is fine); (3) any known issues or specific concerns you want us to focus on; (4) backend API access or staging environment credentials. We create the test plan ourselves based on this — you don't need to write test cases. A 30-minute kickoff call is included to align priorities.

Yes — we frequently test apps built by other agencies, freelancers, or in-house teams. You don't need to have built the app with us to use our QA service. This is a standalone service. We've had clients come to us specifically because their previous agency skipped thorough testing, and the app received 1-star reviews within the first week on Play Store. We review the app objectively and report what we find.

The 14-day plan is designed for apps with 10–40 distinct user flows. Day 1–2 is onboarding and test plan creation. Days 3–10 are active testing across all categories. Days 11–12 are edge case and stress testing. Days 13–14 are bug report delivery and re-test of any fixes submitted during the cycle. For simpler apps with fewer flows (under 10 flows), we can compress this to a 7-day plan at a reduced rate. For larger apps or platforms, we can extend to a 21-day plan.

Before a new app can be published on Google Play Store's production track, Google requires the app to complete a Closed Testing track with at least 12 opt-in testers who must have the app installed for at least 14 consecutive days. All 12 must have accepted the testing invite and actively installed the app — just inviting them isn't enough. If testers uninstall the app before the 14 days are up, the requirement may not be satisfied and the clock can reset. This is Google's quality gate designed to ensure apps are genuinely tested before reaching the general public, and it catches many first-time developers off guard when their app is otherwise fully built and ready to launch.

We provide 12 Google account email addresses. You add those accounts to your Play Console closed testing track and share the opt-in link with them. Our team accepts the invite, installs your app on real Android devices, and actively uses it for 14 consecutive days — fully satisfying Google's requirement. We also provide basic bug feedback on any crashes or issues our testers encounter during the 14 days. After the window closes, you apply for production access in Play Console. Starting price: $100 for the complete 12-tester, 14-day service. Contact us on WhatsApp for a custom quote based on your app's complexity.
