What it's for
The tester app opens the apps you test and confirms each day you open them. It has to know your Peerbeta account: you sign up on the web first, then connect the app once.
With Google
On “Sign in to start testing”, tap “Continue with Google” and pick the Google account you signed up with. If the app says no Peerbeta account uses it, sign up on the web first, or use a pairing code.
With a pairing code
- On the web, open your tester space and go to “Your devices”.
- Tap “Show a pairing code”. Your tester profile has to exist first.
- In the tester app, type the 8 characters in “Pairing code”, then tap “Sign in”. Dashes, spaces and capitals don't matter.
A code works once, for 10 minutes. If the app says “This code doesn't work”, show a new one with “New code”.
Good to know
- One connection per phone: pairing the same phone again replaces the previous one.
- “Disconnect this phone” is in the app's Settings. You can also revoke a phone from “Your devices” on the web.
- After 90 days without use, the phone is signed out.
- To connect again, use Google or a new code.
