“Mobile App testers do not make app; they only make them better.” – @Aarif _Habeeb

As a Mobile app developer I always ensure that my app works before going to in the hand of a mobile application tester. There are many Mobile apps testing tools available in the market that help distribute A/B and beta versions and invite other users to give feedback and report problems. With the help of app testing tools we can generally collect crash reports, analytics, feedback and more. In this article I will list some of the best free and paid mobile application tests options that will help you to publish better apps and win yours users heart.

Here I have listed 5 best tools, in which some are only for iOS and others are cross platform.

TestFlight for iOS Developers:

TestFlight is an amazing tool for mobile app testing it was available for both android and iOS but now it acquired by apple and android support removed.

If you are an iOS developer, and iPhone application tester than TestFlight is best stated for you. It’s a free tool for iOS app testing. With TestFlight Beta Testing you can easily invite users to test your apps before release. You can invite 1k external users or tester for testing your mobile app via using their email address.

If you are iOS developer then you will have to add one line of code.
