FAQ

What is Ubertesters hub?

Ubertesters hub is the system app required for OTA distribution of your tested apps among the testers and reporting issues and crashes. It can be installed on your device by accessing the link https://beta.ubertesters.com

Why I cannot install the Ubertesters hub on my Android device?

Please make sure you’ve allowed the installation of non-Market apps by enabling ‘Unknown sources’ option in your device security settings.

Why am I getting ‘Can’t open the file’ on my Android device when trying to open the downloaded apk file?

This error sometimes happens for all Android devices if you open the file from ‘Downloads’. Please access File Manager (you can install ES File Explorer File Manager, for example) open the file from there.

Why do I have two Ubertesters icons on my iOS device?

The white icon is the Ubertesters hub itself, that is used for the OTA distribution of your builds.
The black icon is just a bookmark to the Ubertesters app installation web page. You can delete it when the hub is installed already, as it will not be required further.
