I am just starting out in the android developer world, and have made a very basic game that I would like to have tested by friends and colleagues. I thought of using the alpha and beta testing/apk sections of the google developer console.
However, I would like my app to eventually be a paid app, and from reading around it would appear that testers would also have to pay in order to test my app for me. Is there any way around this, or I have I misunderstood? I'm talking about the initial purchase of the app, not in app purchases. If not, how do others approach this situation? Give the app away on email, but lose out on the auto updating facilities of the play store, or do you create two apps one for free that is only visible to testers, and then the paid app later on launch? If I did that, would I need two diff package names for each of the app? Thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
