Subreddit rules check

Can you promote here?
The rules clearly permit sharing your own product or project. Follow the format norms below, disclose that it is yours, and lead with substance: allowed is not the same as welcomed for low-effort pitches.
From the rules · Include Google Group + Play Store opt-in links and clear steps; reciprocal (“test for test”) offers are common and expected.
Links
The rules clearly allow links. A plain-text mention still often outperforms a URL from a young account.
What this community rewards
Dominant post formats: showcase, discussion, question
Headline: start with a short CTA like “Need 12 testers…” or “[android] AppName — Need testers”. Write in first person (I/we), 1–3 short paragraphs: 1–2-line description, 2–4 bullet steps (Join Google Group → opt-in → install), include Play Store/Google Group links and an offer to reciprocate. Tone: friendly, practical. Upvotes favor clear opt-in links and “I’ll test yours back”; avoid off-topic or spammy posts.
Arriving in the local format matters: cross-posting the same text everywhere reads as tourist instantly. The wider method is in the Reddit playbook.
Classified mechanically from the community's published rules and recent top posts, last checked October 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/closedtestinghelp's rules page before posting anything that matters.
Thread Otter checks this before every send
These profiles power the product: promo-banned communities never receive a promotional draft, drafts arrive in the local format, and a fact-check gate plus human pacing protect the account doing the talking.
