I'm 16. Google Play made me find 12 testers for 14 days. So I'm building the fix (open source).

What is Dozena?
A free, open-source platform that puts solo devs in the same room:
- 12 devs. Each one brings their own app.
- 14 days. Everyone tests everyone else's app in a synchronized round.
- Everyone meets the requirement. You give 12 testers, you get 12 testers.
No middleman. No paid testers. No stranger who disappears on day 3.
How it works
- Join the waitlist.
- When a round fills up, you're matched with other devs.
- You test their apps. They test yours.
- 14 days later, everyone has completed the cycle.
Honest limits
I'd rather tell you now than let you find out later:
- Dozena doesn't promise Google's approval. It helps you meet the testing requirement; the review is still Google's call.
- Dozena doesn't host your APK. Your app stays where it is.
- It's early. Right now I'm validating: I need 26 devs on the waitlist in ~10 days to run the first pilot (rounds of ~13 devs).
- Free, and licensed under AGPL-3.0. Read the code, break it.
Why I'm building this
Every solo dev I know has been stuck on this rule. It doesn't need a company
or a paid service. It needs 12 people willing to help each other.
Your turn
- ๐งช Join the waitlist if you have an app waiting to ship.
- ๐ Tell me what's broken in this model. I read every comment.
- โญ Share it with one dev who's stuck on the 12/14 wall.
I'm 16, I'm just getting started, and this is the first version. ๐
