testerup - earn money 4+

I like this app as a good option to earn a little bit of spare cash whilst playing a game and keeping me busy, it’s also nice that you get a feel of the app that you genuinely are a tester and your feedback could help the companies and developers that use testerup compared to other rewarded play apps and similar services, they just tend to hook you and give you a tiny reward but with testerup it feels more rewarding not only in a sense of money but that you are contributing to something. The overall feel of the app seems more professional. That being said I have had a few problems such as one of the games I played was having technical issues and I had to reinstall the game, this seemed to work but once I reached a checkpoint, tester up did not record the achievement. I just put this down to it not techically being the first install on the phone as they do tell you it must be the first install

The concept of the app is great and I think it could easily be the main way people play games going forwards. As much as the idea is great, I think there’s some room for improvement in its execution… 1️⃣ the app doesn’t update the total earned so far. Mine still shows £0.00. My wife’s showed a total and now reads £0.00. 2️⃣It would be good to see a total for finished /completed games and a total for active games yet to complete/close. 3️⃣A breakdown/summary page of what games a user has currently active, amount earned, last milestone met and next milestone is required. It is a bit clunk having to drill down into each game to check your progress and then come up and drill into the next. I do find myself constantly going in and out the app trying to work out how many more levels I need to pass to reach my next goal. 4️⃣Some sort of timer/countdown showing how many days are left for each active game. There’s a chance users could miss out on their hard worked earnings if they don’t close out, which is going to lead to negativity towards the app. 6️⃣The goals for the games don’t seem proportionate in some instances. £1.00 to play 100 times then £1.50 to play another 300 times. Games with rewards on a play by play model should payout on an equal proportion.7️⃣ I think the UI of the app could look a lot slicker. It feels too much like a basic website. 8️⃣The premise of the app is good though and I look forward to seeing it develop.

This app would be great if the app could be relied on to track properly, about 50% of the games I have downloaded have not done this, the little wheel just keep whirring on ‘install’ If you email support they are also useless, telling me each and every times it’s my fault for not downloading it properly through their button and allowing tracking… which is complete rubbish because the steps to follow are not rocket science and I follow each step each time as per their screens and a lot of the time it doesn’t work. This is a failing of their app, nothing to do with my ability to download a game and allow tracking so they need to sort that out. I also use Tester Buddy. This app is much more user friend, easier to see what games you have downloaded as the pages for new games are separate and I think I have only had one game of their not work… If you want to earn money some of the time then download this app but be prepared to be frustrated when they don’t register and for support to tell you time and time again it is your fault! Also it would be useful to have the start date when you downloaded something as each game has a different time limit and it would be good to be able to keep track of how much time you have left.

Overall this is a good concept but they really need to get their tracking in order and stop blaming the customer for their faulty software!
