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

Simulated environments can’t accurately replicate actual locations, languages, connectivity or accessibility needs.

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).

How Applause Closes Your QA Gap

Unmatched Testing Coverage

Tap into the world’s largest digital testing community in 200+ countries and territories spanning millions of devices.

Rigorously Test Last-Minute Releases

Applause can stand up testing teams incredibly fast, with on-demand access to global testers who match your requirements.

Fill Your Test Automation Gaps

We pair human-in-the-loop validation with automated scripts and conduct retesting to ensure any failures are resolved prior to launch.

Safeguard User Satisfaction

Our crowdtesting community delivers usability, accessibility and payment-flow feedback alongside defect reports.

Address the Most Common Mobile Issues

The most common functional testing problems uncovered on mobile devices also tend to be the most severe. Our solutions help teams address issues before they reach your end users.
Login Screen

Drive brand loyalty and avoid churn at a critical stage of the customer journey. With Applause, you can ensure it’s simple for all of your end users to enter their username and password – and recover any lost credentials – so they can access your mobile experience.

Performance
The convenience of using a mobile device can be easily negated by inconsistent performance or slow results. Ensure a seamless, high-speed experience every time your customers use your app, regardless of carrier, and avoid frustration caused by spinning wheels and loading errors.
Responsive Design
Mobile devices come in all shapes and sizes. Make sure your customers can use your apps as intended by ensuring the optimal layout for every screen. Applause can help you test responsive design with access to end users with the devices you need around the world, ready to test on demand.
Navigation
Test your mobile apps for intuitive menu design – “Help,” “About” and other options should be easy for every end user to find. Touchscreen and tapping actions like scrolling, selecting and using the back button should be seamless. And, ensure error messages are clear, concise and actionable.
Resilience
Your app needs to work even when power loss, large file-sharing, SMS texts or video calls occur. Applause tests against every scenario to accommodate bandwidth fluctuations and limitations to ensure a positive user experience no matter where or how your customers use your digital products.
