DeviceLab12 satisfies Google Play's mandatory 14-day closed testing requirement with a real-hardware fleet of 12 Android devices and a reciprocal dev-swap community — so your production access is never held hostage.
Submit your app, swap credits with peers, monitor a live 14-day timeline, and export audit-ready logs — all from a single dashboard.
Built for solo indie developers, hobbyist studios, and small agencies that don't have time to chase 20 friends on WhatsApp for two weeks.
Real Android hardware across multiple vendors — never emulators, never bots.
Test other indie apps to earn credits. Redeem credits to have peers test yours.
One-click add of testpilotpro-testers@googlegroups.com to your closed track.
Day-by-day reports on installs, sessions, UI feedback, performance, and crashes.
Free community plan with 3–5 devices, or VIP Lab Fleet for all 12 dedicated slots.
Personal developer accounts need opted-in testers who keep your app installed and engaged for 14 continuous days before you can apply for Production. If even one tester drops out, the clock resets.
In Google Play Console, add testpilotpro-testers@googlegroups.com under Manage Testers.
Enter your app name, package name, and Play Store testing-track link inside DeviceLab12.
Allocate your earned Dev Credits or activate the VIP Lab Fleet for all 12 dedicated devices.
