TesterGround is a mutual testing community for indie Android developers. You help another developer move their closed test forward, then ask the community to do the same for your app.
- Browse testing requests as a compact list or image grid, then choose Join testing.
- Complete the Google Group, Play opt-in, and install steps. Daily app launches are not required.
- After install, request a return test linked to your own published recruitment post.
- For the first 12 seats, the app owner has 48 hours to install, with reminders at 24 and 3 hours remaining.
- If the first deadline is missed, you can send one reminder that adds a final 24-hour window. If that also expires, stay for the 14-day test or leave without penalty.
- After the 12-tester goal is reached, people can still participate, but return tests are voluntary.
The result is a clear exchange: real developers, traceable progress, and private feedback without buying installs from a testing farm.
