Test new apps on your phone. Get paid for honest reports.
Developers pay Qanary to have real people try their Android apps before launch. You pick the tests you want, use the app, and fill in a short report in the Qanary app.
The amount is shown before you start
Report
About 20 minutes with an app, then a short report. Developers can offer more than $5, never less.
Struggle study
The same, plus our SDK records how you used the app: taps, screens and errors. Never what you type.
Stay installed
Keep an app installed for 14 days so it can launch on Google Play. Nothing else to do.
Many tests also offer a prize, at least ten times the report payout, for the most useful report.
The best Qanaries get first pick
Your rank comes from the quality of your reports, not how many you send. It's based on how often developers accept your reports, prizes you've won, and disputes decided in your favor, and it's recalculated every month. When the app opens, the top Qanaries will be listed here each month under nicknames they choose. Your real name is never shown.

Your pay shows up the moment you submit
Earnings show as pending as soon as you submit. When the developer accepts your report, or after 7 days if they don't review it, the money becomes available. Once you have $25 available, we pay you out monthly. We plan to offer gift cards, PayPal, Venmo and bank transfer.
You always get a reason
A developer can only reject a report with a reason you can read. If you disagree, you can dispute it, and your session data (how long the app was open, which tasks you reached) backs you up.
Anyone 18 or older with an Android phone
Sign in with your Google account. Testing is free to join. You need to be 18 or older and able to receive payouts. US testers who earn $600 or more in a year will be asked for tax details, as US law requires.
You'll never retype your details
When you sign up, we read a few things from your phone, like its model, Android version and language, so we can match you to tests. You can see everything we hold under You → See what we know, and delete your account at any time. Developers never see your name or email. Details in our privacy policy.
