Applause QA Crowdtesting for Mobile & Desktop Apps
Give your users the seamless experiences they demand.
Applause extends your team’s capacity and coverage with a global crowd of QA experts and end users testing on the devices, OS versions and networks your customers use.
Ship faster app updates with fewer production issues.
Why Traditional App Testing Falls Short
Device & OS Fragmentation
1,000+ active device models and monthly OS updates make full coverage impossible in‑house.
Limited Real-world Context
Compressed Release Cycles
Even agile teams struggle to keep pace when manual “smoke tests” block every sprint.
UX Blind Spots Galore
Automated functional testing can miss key user experience issues (e.g., whether a new flow is confusing, slow or non‑compliant).
