Android early access
Bonded for Android: early access is open
Bonded is in its final testing stage on Google Play. Join the test, play a few sessions, and help us launch.
What’s happening
Before a new app can appear publicly on Google Play, Google asks for a group of real testers to use it for 14 days. That’s where we are now.
The Android app is the same Bonded you’d get on iPhone: every deck, Private Pulse and Memory Capsules. When we go public, you simply keep it and get updates as usual.
Join in 3 steps
About 2 minutes.
1
Join the tester group
Use the Google account that’s on your Android phone.
2
Become a tester
On your phone, open the test link while signed in to the same Google account, and tap “Become a tester”.
3
Install Bonded
Tap “Download it on Google Play” and install. Bonded won’t show up in Play Store search yet. During testing, the link is the only way in.
Then, over the next 14 days
- Stay in the test for 14 days in a row. Please don’t leave the test or uninstall the app.
- Play 3–4 sessions with your partner, a friend or family. They can join from any browser with a link or code, no app needed.
- Tell us what you think: what confused you, what broke, what you loved. Share feedback
Premium during the test
Premium is a real subscription through Google Play: €9.99 a month, or €59.99 a year with a 7-day free trial. You can cancel anytime in Google Play → Payments & subscriptions.
Subscribing during the test is a real purchase and a genuine way to support a small, independent studio. Thank you.
Just want to test Premium? Email support@bonded.studio with the email you signed up with, and we’ll unlock it for your test.
On iPhone?
Bonded is already on the App Store.
Questions
Do I need an Android phone?+
Yes, Android 7.0 or newer, to host and use the app. The people you play with don’t: they can join from any web browser.
Why do I have to join a Google Group?+
During testing, Google only lets people on our tester list install the app. Joining the group puts you on that list. We can see your email address; other testers can’t. We’ll only write to you about the test.
What happens after the test?+
Bonded launches publicly on Google Play. You keep the app, your account and everything you’ve saved.
Can I leave the test?+
Yes, anytime: open the test link and choose to leave, then leave the group. If you can, please stay the full 14 days. It’s what gets Bonded onto Google Play.
Bonded is for adults 18 and over.
