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

  1. Join the waitlist.
  2. When a round fills up, you're matched with other devs.
  3. You test their apps. They test yours.
  4. 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

  • ๐Ÿงช Join the waitlist if you have an app waiting to ship.
  • ๐Ÿ” 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. ๐Ÿ˜‰
