Honest feedback before launch

Test My App and Get Honest Feedback

IndieAppCircle is where indie developers test each other's apps. Test 2 apps and yours goes live, then other builders try it and send you written feedback. Free, no card needed.

Need people to test your app? IndieAppCircle helps indie developers, solo founders, and small teams get early testers, collect honest feedback, and improve their product before launch.

Instead of posting your app and hoping strangers reply, find other builders who can try your product, share first impressions, and point out what feels confusing, broken, or unclear.

Find early testers

Connect with other indie developers who can try your app and give feedback before your next launch or update.

Get honest first impressions

Learn what feels clear, confusing, valuable, or frustrating when someone uses your app for the first time.

Improve before launch

Fix onboarding issues, usability problems, and weak messaging before you send more traffic to your app.

How to get your app tested

The goal is simple: help you get useful feedback from real people who actually try your app and tell you what needs improvement.

Step 1

Share your app

Create your app page and explain what your product does, who it is for, and what kind of testing or feedback you want.

Step 2

Ask focused questions

Ask about onboarding, usability, bugs, messaging, or first impressions so the feedback is more specific and useful.

Step 3

Improve your product

Use the feedback to remove friction, make the value clearer, and improve the experience before launch.

Why this works better than asking strangers to test your app

Many founders post “test my app” links in forums and social feeds and get little useful response. A more structured feedback flow works better because people know what kind of feedback to give and why their time matters.

Get feedback from people who understand early-stage products.

Learn what real users notice in the first few minutes.

Get more useful feedback than vague public comments.

Improve faster before launch or a major traffic push.

Made for real product testing

This is about honest feedback, real testing, and better product decisions — not fake reviews or low-quality engagement.

Use IndieAppCircle to test onboarding, spot friction, validate messaging, and understand what early users actually experience.

Test my app FAQ

These questions cover what founders usually mean when they search for testers or feedback before launch.

How can I get people to test my app?

You can share your app with other builders, explain what kind of feedback you need, and get useful input from people who actually try the product.

What should I ask testers?

Ask about onboarding, usability, bugs, feature clarity, and first impressions so the feedback is easier to act on.

Who is this for?

It is best for indie developers, solo founders, MVP builders, and teams launching early-stage products.

Can I use this before launch?

Yes. This is especially useful before launch, when small usability problems and unclear messaging can still be fixed quickly.

Before you join

Straight answers

What people usually want to know before they list an app here.

Is IndieAppCircle really free?

Yes. You get 5 credits when you join. Test 2 apps and your app goes live. Every test you give that gets approved earns credits, and you spend credits when you approve feedback on your own app. No card needed. If you'd rather skip the testing, a one-time 19€ Permanent Listing puts your app live straight away.

How fast will I get feedback?

There is no fixed turnaround, because the testers are other developers, not staff. Three things speed it up: clear test instructions, a fair credit reward, and the +5 bonus the first tester on every new app earns, which makes new listings worth picking early.

Who are the testers?

Other indie developers and founders who are getting their own apps tested too. They are good at spotting confusing onboarding, unclear copy, bugs and missing basics. They are not your target users, so treat their feedback as a sharp first pass before launch, not as market research.

What if the feedback is lazy?

Reject it and it costs you nothing. You only spend credits on feedback you approve. Feedback you don't review within 48 hours is approved automatically, so check your inbox.
