Needed - 6 more testers for Android Book Organizing app.

Bound Reads is an all inclusive book organizing app for Readers and Authors. Testers will be given full access. It is closed testing. If you need app for app I can help with IOS/Apple.

Looking for Android Beta testers for a book tracking app

I launched Bound Reads quietly. No Product Hunt, no big announcement. Just posted in a few places and waited. Now, I'm looking for a total 12 Android Beta Testers for Google Play Store to make available to the public.

19 users. 2,185 visits in the last 30 days. 5 Android testers, 9 to go.

Small numbers. But the signal from those 19 people has been specific enough to be useful.

What they actually use:

  1. Special editions shelf - tracking signed copies, limited hardcovers, and collector editions separately from standard inventory
  2. Multi-platform subscription tracking - Kindle, Kobo, Nook all in one dashboard with billing dates
  3. Loan management - who has what, when it's due, contact info attached
  4. Reading goals - monthly and yearly, with notifications at 50% and 100% completion
  5. Book club tools - AI discussion questions, meeting sync, member management

What nobody cared about: the generic "add a book" flow. The people who stuck around already had 80 - 150 books. They needed organization, not onboarding.

I'm now trying to figure out if the paid tiers (Reader at the base, Collector for heavy users, Author Access for writers managing ARCs and street teams) are priced and structured correctly for this audience.

If you're someone who tracks editions, manages a reading group, or loans books regularly - I'd genuinely want to know what a tool like this is worth to you. What would make you pay for it vs. stay free? Would be willing to become an Android Beta Tester? Log in everyday for 14 days giving feedback?

This is my first post ever here on Reddit, so please be kind.
