I made a simple timer app for Android, desktop, and browser. I think it’s ready for most part, and I’m starting to look into publishing it.

I decided to start with Android / Play Store, which immediately gives me a roadblock. Google Play Console says:

  • Have at least 20 testers opted-in to your closed test (1 tester currently opted-in)
  • Run your closed test with at least 20 testers, for at least 14 days

I want to look into F-Droid and Flathub once I have this sorted out. But before that, any opinions on the app, or volunteers for testing, as I don’t have 20 friends to ask?

Thanks.

Edit: Let’s try Play store again with this: https://groups.google.com/g/jyl-test-group

Edit 2: It works, at least someone besides me was able to join:

What a pain. I’ll look into preparing an F-droid release as soon as I have time.

    Joined group, still can’t get in on the Play link but I’ve made a note to check back and see if it’s updated tomorrow. What a faff!

    Update: store link now works for group members.
