Beta testing tool and tips

[teambelair]

Hi All,

I run a martial arts school for children with special needs and made an app to help children workout at home. Before sharing to our parents, I wonder if it would be beneficial to use/integrate with a dedicated tool to collect user feedback. If not, I will simply ask users to send me directly their feedback via email or fill out a form I built directly on the app:

Do you have any free tools and tips you would recommend to launch a successful beta test?

Thanks!

Provided you are not looking for a detailed feedback, I believe you can use AppSheet’s built-in feedback solution as well.

However, provided you’re looking for a more detailed feedback, I believe to create a Feedback Form within your app will be the more robust solution.

From the Beta testing perspective, AppSheet does allow up to 10 active users/month in an app that has not be deployed…for testing purposes. I typically reserve a couple slots for myself for personal testing with non-appcreator accounts in case needed, so I will invite up to 8 others to try out the app…when I need app feedback.

Thank you @LeventK @WillowMobileSystems . Was just wondering if anyone used a tool such as Instabug or created their own feedback page like I did.

Provided the feedbackers are normal app users, I generally prefer mine own in-app messaging tool I had detailed here:

In-App Messaging w/AppSheet Tips & Tricks 💡

I have once promised to deploy how in-app messaging can be done within an AppSheet app. For a long time I couldn’t be able to find some free time to build the app, but here it’s for your review and use. I’m still playing with the app build to fine tune it, so you might experience possible bugs or non-working parts in between my tweakings. The app is using slices as per USEREMAIL(), so in order to test the functionality, please add yourself as a USER first. Hope you like it FEATURES C…
