What's included
Everything between the opt-in link and the Apply button.
01
A 20-tester closed test
20 people on their own Android phones for 14 days, each writing notes on day 7 and day 14. We guarantee 12 are still opted in on day 14, the number Google counts.
02
5 recorded sessions
TestFi Pro testers record their screen for 15 to 20 minutes and say out loud what they expect and where they get stuck. They come in on days 2 to 5, while there is still time to ship a fix.
03
A fix list
What the recordings show, ranked by how bad it is, with timestamps so you can watch the moment. By email within 5 business days of the last recording.
04
Your production access answers
Google asks nine questions after the 14 days. We draft them from your testers' notes and what you tell us you changed, and a person edits them. On your campaign page within 2 business days of day 14.
05
A launch checklist, checked
Store listing, data safety, content rating, target API level, privacy policy, reviewer access. You tick it as you go and we look it over on days 12 to 14.
06
One free re-run
If Google comes back with "more testing required", whatever reason it gives, forward the email within 7 days of your end date and we run the closed test again once, at no cost.
How the 14 days go
Problems found in week one, while there is still time to fix them.
Day 0
You activate
Add the opt-in link, what testers should do and a short brief for the recordings. Testers start joining.
Days 2-5
Recordings come in
A person checks each one before you see it. A recording that misses the brief is redone by another tester.
About day 7
Fix list
You get the list while the test is still running, so the fixes you ship can go in your answers.
Days 12-14
Checklist review
We look over what Play Console will ask for at release and tell you what is missing.
Day 14
Test ends
12 or more testers still opted in, or we run it again.
+2 business days
Answers ready
Edited answers on your campaign page. You read them, change anything that is not true, and apply.

Need only the 12 testers? The closed test is enough.
Launch is for when you would rather ship than run the test yourself. All three plans put real testers on your track for the full 14 days.

Who it's for
- Your first app on a personal Play Console account, and you have never been through production access.
- Google already asked you for more testing once, and you want the second round to count.
- You would rather spend the two weeks fixing the app than chasing testers and writing answers.
What we don't promise
- Approval. Google decides production access, and it does not tell anyone its rules in full.
- Testers in one country. Most of ours are in Nigeria, Kenya and India; ask first if that matters.
- Answers that say what did not happen. They describe your test as it went, and you read them before you submit.
Questions
What is TestFi Launch?
TestFi Launch is a Google Play launch we run with you for $499. It includes a 20-tester closed test for 14 days, 5 screen recordings by TestFi Pro testers on days 2 to 5, a fix list, your production access answers edited by a person, a review of your launch checklist, and one free re-run if Google answers "more testing required".
Will my app get production access?
Google decides that, and nobody can promise it. What Launch does is make sure the test Google looks at is a real one: enough testers for the full 14 days, notes that show they used the app, changes you made because of what they found, and answers that describe all of it accurately.
How is it different from a closed test on its own?
A closed test ($39.99 for 16 testers, $49.99 for 20) gets you the testers, their notes and an AI draft of your answers. Launch adds the recordings, a fix list early enough to act on, answers a person has edited, a checklist review and a wider re-run. If you already know your app is solid and only need the 12 testers, the closed test is the better buy.
Who are the testers?
Real people on their own Android phones, most of them in Nigeria, Kenya and India. The recordings come from TestFi Pro testers, invited from our trusted ranks. If your app only works in one country, write to us before you order.
What do I still do myself?
You upload the build to a closed testing track in Play Console, paste the opt-in link, fix what you decide to fix, read the answers before you submit them, and press Apply for production. The answers go to Google under your name, so they say only what is true.
When can it start?
We take 2 Launches a week so each one gets a person's time. The order page shows your start week before you pay, and you activate from that Monday.
Can I get a refund?
No. If a Launch cannot run, the payment can go towards other TestFi campaigns instead, and the re-run covers a "more testing required" answer from Google.
Read the TestFi Launch terms, try the free production access answer drafter, or check where your 14 days stand with the closed testing tracker.
Ready when your build is.
Pay now and add the details when your closed track is up. Nothing starts until you press Activate.
