Pricing

App Testing Pricing

Cost depends on the scope of the test scenario. A single feature check starts at $0.05 — extended multi-screen sessions with detailed issue logs and video proof cost significantly more because they take longer and require more from the tester.

Minimum Reward

$0.05

per completed task

Example Task Rewards

TaskExample Reward
Single feature check (open screen, test one action, screenshot result)$0.05–$0.20
Onboarding or flow test (complete a multi-step scenario, note issues)$0.20–$0.60
Full test scenario (multi-screen flow, structured bug report per step)$0.50–$1.50
Extended session (comprehensive walkthrough, detailed issue log, device info)$1.50–$4.00

*These are examples, not fixed pricing tiers.

Calculate Your Cost

Estimate cost based on scenario complexity and the number of device configurations you need to cover. One task per scenario per device type keeps reports focused.

How It Works

How to Hire App Testers

Post your app and test scenario. Real people run it on their devices and report results — you review before paying.

01

Post App and Test Scenario

Share your store link, TestFlight invite, or APK. Write the exact steps and expected outcomes.

02

Workers Install on Real Devices

Workers install on their own Android or iOS device. Wrong device or OS versions skip the task.

03

Workers Run Your Scenario

Workers follow your steps and note crashes, errors, or unexpected behavior against your expected outcomes.

04

You Review Report and Proof

Workers submit a step-by-step report and device screenshot. Approve only complete, verified submissions.

Test Scenarios

Which Testing Problem Are You Solving?

Pre-launch beta, OS compatibility, device-specific bugs, regression coverage, onboarding friction, localization — each requires a different task setup and a different worker profile.

Pre-Launch Beta Testing

Problem
An app ready for submission to the App Store or Google Play may have crashes, layout issues, or broken flows that only appear on specific device models and OS versions — emulator testing and team devices cover a fraction of the real-device combinations users will have.
With RapidWorkers
Workers install your beta build via TestFlight or Google Play Internal Testing on their own physical devices across varied hardware configurations. You receive bug reports from real device-OS combinations before your submission goes live.

OS Version Compatibility Testing

Problem
A new major iOS or Android release changes rendering behavior, permission prompts, and system APIs in ways that can silently break features your team has not touched — but you only have a few test devices running the new OS version.
With RapidWorkers
Workers with devices running the updated OS version execute your test scenarios and report any behavior that differs from the previous OS version. You get coverage across the real device pool without buying new hardware.

Specific Device Bug Reproduction

Problem
A crash report in your analytics references a specific device model — a Samsung Galaxy A-series phone or an older iPhone — but no one on the team owns that device, making it impossible to reproduce and confirm the bug before fixing it.
With RapidWorkers
Post a task specifying the exact device model required. Workers who own that device follow the steps to reproduce the reported issue and submit a confirmation screenshot. You verify the bug is reproducible on the target hardware before assigning it for a fix.

Post-Release Regression Testing

Problem
A new feature release may inadvertently break adjacent features in the same codebase — regression bugs are often reported by end users after launch rather than caught by the team during the release cycle.
With RapidWorkers
Workers execute test scenarios covering features adjacent to the newly shipped code, reporting any unexpected behavior. You run regression coverage across a real device pool after every significant release before the next day's user traffic arrives.

Onboarding Flow Friction Testing

Problem
Onboarding completion rates are low but analytics show only where users drop off — not the confusing copy, unexpected redirect, or missing progress indicator that caused the drop-off at that specific step.
With RapidWorkers
Workers go through your onboarding flow as cold users on their own device, reporting every friction point: unclear instructions, confusing UI, unexpected behavior, and steps where they were unsure what to do next. You get a step-level friction report, not just a drop-off rate.

Global Localization and Regional Testing

Problem
Date formats, currency display, right-to-left text rendering, and region-specific API behavior can fail silently in markets your team cannot test from their own devices — only real users in those countries encounter the actual device locale settings.
With RapidWorkers
Workers in the target countries test your app on their own devices with their local locale settings active. You get confirmation that regional formatting, language rendering, and any country-specific flows work correctly for users in those markets.
Your Guarantee: Reproducible Reports from Real Devices

Every Submission Includes Device Info, Steps, and a Screenshot

You specify what a valid bug report must contain. Workers who submit vague descriptions without reproduction steps, device details, or screenshots are rejected without penalty.

  • Screenshot of the app on the worker's real device

    Every submission includes a screenshot of your app running on the worker's physical device — confirming the test ran on real hardware, not an emulator

  • Reproduction steps required

    Specify in your brief that reports must include the exact steps taken before the issue appeared — "it doesn't work" with no context is rejected at no cost

  • Device and OS version in every report

    Workers include their device model and OS version in the submission — essential for triaging whether an issue is device-specific or universal

This is how workers see your task on RapidWorkers

Job Description

Install the app from the Google Play link provided. Open the app on your Android device (Android 12 or higher required). Follow this test scenario: (1) Register a new account using your real email address, (2) Complete the profile setup step, (3) Navigate to the main dashboard, (4) Add one item using the primary "Add" button. At each step, note whether the outcome matches the expected behavior described below.

Expected behavior: registration completes without error, profile setup has 3 required fields, dashboard loads within 3 seconds, Add button opens a modal with a form. Report any deviation from these expected outcomes. If the app crashes at any point, note the exact step where it crashed and what you tapped. Screenshot any error screen or unexpected visual. Submit a step-by-step report with your device model and Android version.

Frequently Asked Questions

Published Android and iOS apps, beta builds distributed via TestFlight or Google Play Internal Testing, and APK sideloads. Web apps accessed from a mobile browser also work. Apps that require proprietary hardware, regional SIM cards, or carrier-specific features may have limited tester availability.

Yes. Specify the required device type (Android or iOS), minimum OS version, and any device model requirements in your brief. Workers without the required device or OS skip the task. For specific model testing (e.g., Samsung Galaxy S21, iPhone 14), availability depends on which workers in the pool own that device — you may need to run the task with relaxed device requirements if no workers qualify.

Workers submit a screenshot of the issue alongside a description of the steps they took before it appeared. You specify in your brief what the report must include: the steps to reproduce, the expected behavior, the actual behavior, and the device and OS version. Workers who submit "it crashed" with no reproduction steps are rejected.

Yes. For iOS, distribute your build via TestFlight and include the invitation link in the task brief. For Android, share a direct APK download link or add workers to Google Play Internal Testing. Include installation instructions if the distribution method is non-standard — workers who cannot install the build due to unclear instructions should be allowed to skip without penalty.

App testing tasks ask workers to follow a defined scenario and report what breaks, crashes, or behaves incorrectly — the output is a reproducible bug report. Usability feedback tasks ask workers to describe their subjective experience — what was confusing, what they expected, what they would change. Both are valid task types on RapidWorkers; they require different brief formats and produce different outputs.

For finding critical crashes and showstopper bugs, 5–10 testers on the target device type is usually enough to surface the most common issues. For compatibility testing across device models and OS versions, run separate tasks per configuration with 3–5 testers each. For regression testing after a release, 10–20 testers covering your top device segments gives reliable coverage.

Yes, and this is the recommended approach. Define a single focused test scenario per task: "complete the checkout flow" or "add a second user to the account." Focused scenarios produce more specific bug reports than open-ended "test the whole app" briefs, which produce vague or incomplete submissions.
