Quality & Policy Alignment
Built to meet Google's highest quality standards.
Google designed closed testing to ensure Android apps are thoroughly tested, stable, and ready for real users. Here is how AppBanana fulfills every official guideline.
100% Real Physical Devices
Google requires apps to be tested on authentic Android devices, not virtual emulators.
All testing runs on physical Android phones (Pixel, Galaxy, OnePlus, Xiaomi) across Android 10 to 15.
Continuous Cohort (12+ Testers)
At least 12 opt-in testers must remain continuously active for 14 uninterrupted days.
We maintain 12–25 active testers with daily tracking to keep your track safely above Google's requirement.
Authentic Daily Engagement
Google checks for genuine user sessions, screen engagement, and real device vitals.
Testers open and explore your app daily, generating real activity logs and usability feedback.
Production Review Readiness
Google reviews testing logs, user feedback, and questionnaire answers before approving.
We provide complete testing logs, feedback summaries, and answers for the 20-question review.
Four-layer guarantee
Your risk: $0.
We take on all the risk. If your app isn’t approved, we re-test, fix the issues, or give you a full refund. You only pay for results.
Real Humans
Real humans, not bots.
Verified Android users launch and interact with your app on real physical devices — never emulators, never bot accounts.
Approval Guarantee
If your app isn't approved, you don't pay.
If Google Play Console rejects your production access request, we issue a 100% full refund. You only pay for results.
Free Retesting
