Android App - Beta Testers Needed

Posted on 2010-06-28 by mike

*UPDATE* - we've got enough users for our test, so we're no longer accepting any applications to the beta. If you didn't make it in, don't panic - we hope to have the final version ready shortly for everyone to use.

---------------------------------

We're excited to announce that we're close to releasing our first version of MyFitnessPal for Android users. The app is almost complete and we're ready to invite some people to help us test it and make sure we find and address any remaining bugs or issues.

If you're interested in helping us test this first version, please send a message to androidfeedback@myfitnesspal.com with the following information:

What device you are using (Motorola Droid, Nexus One, HTC MyTouch 3G, etc...)
What version of the Android OS you have on your device. You can find this by going to "Settings" on your device and then tapping "About phone". The Android OS version is listed under "Firmware version"
What country you live in (U.S., Canada, etc.)
How long you've been using MyFitnessPal for (roughly)

Please don't post this information as a comment to this blog post. Instead, send us a mail message at androidfeedback@myfitnesspal.com.

Anyone can apply, but if you are accepted, please be prepared to answer a few questions about your experience with the app, i.e. give us your opinion about the application as well as let us know of any bugs/crashes/etc. that you find. We probably won't be able to accept everyone, so please don't be disappointed if you don't make it into the beta. We hope to have the official app available shortly.

For Blackberry Users: We're still in the planning and design phase for our Blackberry app. Once the Android app is complete, Blackberry will be next on our list.

Thanks, and hope you are enjoying the site!
