Beta Testing Features

After joining beta testing, you will see the beta version card of the app.

In the beta version card, you can:

  • Download and install the beta version of the app.
  • Leave feedback in the form of a review for the developer.
    note

    The review will only be visible to you and the developer. You can edit or delete it at any time. The developer can also reply to your review.

  • Rate the app (stars) with a text comment.
    These reviews and ratings will not appear in the general list of reviews in the app store and do not affect the app’s overall rating.

This way, beta testing lets you try new features early and interact directly with the developer through feedback.

What Happens After Beta Testing Ends

If the developer ends testing, your version of the app will automatically switch to the standard active version available to all users.

How to Leave Beta Testing

If you no longer want to receive beta versions of the app, you can leave testing:

  • In the app card, tap the menu (three dots) and select Leave beta.

note
  • While you have a beta version installed, you can only edit reviews for that version.
  • If you leave beta testing, install the update when it becomes available to switch to the stable version. If no update is released yet, you can continue using the beta version or reinstall the app.
