How to Get Started with App Tester Hub

Are you preparing to launch your app on the Google Play Store? Before publishing, it’s crucial to test your app to ensure it meets Google’s review guidelines.

App Tester Hub simplifies this process, helping you test, review, and refine your app before it goes live. Here is your complete step-by-step guide.

1Pass the Closed Testing Phase

Google requires your app to go through a "Closed Testing" phase. This means at least 12 testers need to opt-in and test your app continuously for a 14-day period.

Failing to meet this requirement often leads to rejection. We provide the community of active testers you need to satisfy this policy effortlessly.

2Join the Tester Group

To enable our community to test your app, you must add your email to our tester groups. This grants you permissions to download other apps and allows others to download yours.

• Join Tester Group 1
• Join Tester Group 2

3Configure Play Console

Once you have joined the groups, you need to tell Google Play that these groups are authorized to test your app.

1. Open your Google Play Console.
2. Navigate to the Closed Testing track.
3. Select the "Testers" tab.
4. Add the following email list: apptesterhub1@googlegroups.com
5. Save your changes.

4Share Your App Link

Now that permissions are set, it's time to get testers.

• Log in to your App Tester Hub Dashboard.
• Navigate to the "Tester" section.
• Enter your App Name and the Web Link (Join on Web link) provided by Play Console.
• Click "Share".

Your app will now be visible to our community of testers who will install it and keep it on their devices for the required 14 days.

By following these steps, you verify your app's stability and meet Google's rigorous entry requirements. App Tester Hub is designed to make this compliance step as smooth as possible, letting you focus on building great features.
