Test our new Android apps before they reach Google Play

Google opens a new app to everyone only after at least 12 people have tested it for 14 days in a row. Pick up to three of our apps, keep them on your phone for two weeks and tell us what breaks.

Day 0: you joinshort mailDay 14: done

Day 0 you join. On days 1, 3, 7, 10 and 13 a short mail brings one small task. On day 14 the test is done.

1. Pick up to 3 apps

GlidecueA teleprompter that follows your voice as you read, with a short report on pace, pauses and filler words.Voice follow needs Android 13 or later. The rest works on older phones too.Lifetime Pro code
BodyArcadeFitness games you play with your body in front of the phone camera: jump, duck, squat and lean to clear the road.Needs a front camera and a bit of room; the seated mode works without. Pose tracking runs on the phone and the video never leaves it.
ParrotlyA party game for one phone: the parrot plays a sound, each player copies it with their voice and gets a score from 0 to 100.Uses the microphone. No account and no internet; each recording is scored on the phone and deleted when the game ends.Lifetime Pro code
OkulTakipA school bus tracker: parents see the bus on a live map and get a note when their child gets on and off.Screens in Turkish and English. The full test uses two phones, one as driver and one as parent; one phone can test the driver side.
TideloA shared calendar for separated parents: enter the rhythm and the handover day, and it shows which home the children sleep in each night.No Turkish screens (English, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, German, Brazilian Portuguese). Invented names are fine; you need no children to test it.Lifetime Pro code

2. Your e-mail address

The test links come here. Any address works; what joins the test is the Google account on your phone.

Also tell me when a new app opens for testing (one mail per app). I agree to get the mails described on this page: one to confirm, one with the test links and five short ones over the 14 days. Every mail has a one-click unsubscribe.

What you get

For apps marked "Lifetime Pro code": after the 14 days, email info@peakappsstudio.com from the Google account you tested with and we send you a lifetime Pro code for that app. There is no other reward and no payment.

How the mails work

Seven mails over the 14 days at most: one to confirm, one with the links, then days 1, 3, 7, 10 and 13. Each brings one small task, what changed in the app when something did, and a "still installed" link that tells us the test is alive. If you tick the box, you also get one mail when a new app opens for testing.

Your data

We keep your e-mail address, your language and time zone, the apps you picked, when you signed up and confirmed, and which "still installed" links you pressed.

It is stored on Cloudflare, and the mails go out through ForwardEmail, our mail provider. We do not share it, sell it or add it to any other list.

Sign-ups that are not confirmed are deleted after 7 days. Unsubscribing deletes your address from the list; we keep it only on a do-not-mail list so it is never mailed again.

Questions, a copy of what we hold or a deletion request: info@peakappsstudio.com. This section is the privacy notice for the tester list.

Questions

Why a Google Group?: Google lets only listed accounts into a closed test. Our group is on the list of every one of our tests, so joining it once opens all of them. In the group settings you can set group mail to "No email".
Google says the app is not available.: Chrome or Play is signed in with a different Google account than the one that joined the group. Switch the account and open the test link again.
Can I test on an iPhone?: No. These are Google Play tests, so they need an Android phone.
Can I stop?: Yes, at any time. Every mail has a one-click unsubscribe, and each test has a leave button on its Google Play test page.
I unsubscribed and want back in.: Write to info@peakappsstudio.com from that address and we put you back.
