Hi. 

I built a maths game for my son. He's doing the Math competitions at school and everything I found was either boring or nagging me for a subscription, so I made my own. It's MapMyMath, aimed at kids roughly 8 to 11 (Aussie Years 3 to 6), though it's fine for anyone wanting to knock the rust off.

As part of Google requirements to publish to the Play Store, I need to run a closed test with 12+ people for 14 days. That's the whole ask. Install it, poke at it every so often, and leave it on your phone for the two weeks. You don't have to actually study maths. Just having it installed and opened is what counts. If you or a kid does play it and something's broken or annoying, you can let me know.

As it is a closed testing, you need to join this group. After that, click on what of the 2 links below:

- On your Android phone: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mapmymath.app
- In a browser first: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.mapmymath.app

Tap the Android one on the phone you'll actually use, say yes to the tester invite, then install from Play like normal. It can take an hour or so to show up after you opt in, so don't be surprised if it's not there straight away.

One thing worth knowing: Google counts you only while you stay opted in. If you leave the group or uninstall partway through, it messes with the 14-day count, so hang in there till the end if you can.

Thanks. Twelve of you and this thing goes live.

Can you click on https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.mapmymath.app first to opt in being a tester first?

Just a quick update, google play is taking sometime to propagate the google group settings. If you get 'app not available,' you're early, just give it a few hours.

Settings have propagated now. https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.mapmymath.app should work. lmk if you have any issues.

I tried both download links, but get "We're sorry, the requested URL was not found on this server"

I would be grateful if you could try mine too:
