App testing is a fun and easy way to make money online. As an app tester, you’ll download a new app before it’s launched to the public to give feedback on its usability, functionality and consistency. Your feedback will go towards improving the overall performance of an app before it goes live.
Over 194 billion mobile apps were downloaded in 2018 alone. It’s therefore no surprise that app testers are in high demand. To become an app tester, you will need a smartphone or tablet. Sign up to a third-party platform such as Ubertesters. Here, you’ll need to fill out a short form giving information on yourself and your technical skills. For higher-paid testing opportunities, consider taking some online training on general programming and app development. Once the site has certified your account, you’ll receive requests to start testing apps.
The average payment for individual app testing is approximately $5 to $7. That said, some platforms pay more depending on the intensity of the test. We recommend that you sign up to more than one testing platform to maximise your earnings, as this is a great way to generate some quick cash in your spare time.
