Recruit testers.
Keep feedback calm.
TesterBuddy connects iOS developers with verified testers. Start building better apps with instant feedback and zero noise.
Built for those tired of
talking into the void.
TestFlight is great for code distribution, but it completely fails at human connection. We built the tool we wish we had.
"TestFlight is where good ideas go to die. I get hundreds of installs, but when it comes to feedback? Total silence. It’s like building in a complete vacuum."
Because 10 seconds is
far too much friction.
If the path from a thought to a message takes more than a few taps, it’s lost forever. Reach your users instantly.
"Testers have insights, but they're not going to hunt you down via email or Discord. If it’s not instant, it’s not happening. We need a bridge, not a barrier."
A safe harbor before
App Store reviews.
One UI glitch at launch can cost you a 1-star review that haunts your ASO forever. Test safely, launch confidently.
"Launching early is a trap. Those one-star reviews stay with you for life. We need a sandbox where we can fail safely before the whole world sees it."

Frequently Asked Questions
How to find beta testers for iOS apps?
Finding quality testers is hard. TesterBuddy solves this by providing a community of verified iOS testers ready to provide meaningful feedback.
Is TesterBuddy free?
Yes. TesterBuddy is completely free for both developers and testers.
What apps can I test?
You can test everything from early prototypes to polished release candidates. We focus on innovation.
How does karma work?
Testers earn karma points for providing useful feedback. High karma builds your reputation and grants priority access to new apps. Karma points are not real money and cannot be withdrawn or exchanged for cash. TesterBuddy is a community platform, not a paid service.
Does TesterBuddy work with TestFlight?
Yes — TesterBuddy is designed specifically for TestFlight-based beta testing. Developers share their TestFlight invite link inside the app, testers join directly through TestFlight, and all feedback and communication happens in TesterBuddy. We handle the human side that TestFlight doesn't: recruitment, screening, communication, and feedback collection.
