A fair question

“Why shouldn't I just use the Play Console?”

The Play Console is designed for production distribution. It has internal testing tracks, but Google often applies the same review and policy checks to them, which can hold up your QA loop by days.

TestApp.io is designed for the development loop. When CI finishes a build, it should be on your QA team's devices right away. No processing time, no review, no policy blocks.

We also support both iOS and Android in one platform, so you can run your whole mobile distribution workflow without juggling tools.

Built-in task management

Track bugs and features without leaving the platform

Google Play Console only distributes apps. TestApp.io gives you the full workflow, with built-in task management and integrations.

  • Create tasks from tester feedback
  • Two-way sync with Jira and Linear
  • Version planning and release tracking
  • Automated playbooks for workflows
