I have an Android! Perfect. Keep reading and choose your path below.
We need your email to add it to our Test Group

📱 PATH A: You are ON YOUR PHONE
STEP 1: BECOME A TESTER
Tap this exact link: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.patchworkangelstm.patchworkangelstm
Find the button that says Become a tester or Join the program and tap it.
CRITICAL: Do not move on until you see the exact words “YOU ARE A TESTER.”If you do not see those words, you are not finished.
STEP 2: INSTALL PATCHWORK ANGELS
Tap this exact link:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.patchworkangelstm.patchworkangelstm

Wait for it to finish.

STEP 2: SEND PATCHWORK ANGELS TO YOUR PHONE
On that same page, click Download it on Google Play.
Click Install.
If Google asks which device to use, choose your Android phone.
Check your phone and open Patchwork Angels after it installs.
⏰ STEP 3: DO NOT LEAVE FOR 14 DAYS
This applies to everyone.
Google requires us to have at least 12 testers stay enrolled for 14 full days before we can apply to launch Patchwork Angels publicly.
DO NOT click Leave the program.
DO NOT opt out of testing.
Keep Patchwork Angels on your phone.
Stay enrolled for the full 14 days.
🧪 STEP 4: USE THE APP AND REPORT PROBLEMS
Once we get 12 testers - the clock begins!
Over the next two weeks, please open Patchwork Angels and actually try it.
Tap buttons. Open pages. Try the features. Create an account. Use every feature
available. Test it all out!
If something does not work, or you have feedback, fill out this form:
Tell us exactly what you were doing when the problem happened.
Example:
“I tapped Guided Prayer, then tapped Play, and no sound came out.”
That is much more helpful than: “It doesn’t work.”
🆘 IF YOU GET COMPLETELY STUCK
STOP.
Do not guess.
Do not change settings.
Do not delete anything.
Take a screenshot of exactly what you see.
Send the screenshots via the Feedback form and wait for instructions.
This is the version I would lock before we move on to the visual.
One thing I appreciate about Beta Testers Needed is that it does not ask us to look away from uncomfortable truths. Awareness matters, but awareness should lead somewhere—toward compassion, safer choices, stronger boundaries, and support.

Discussion prompt: If you were designing support for a hard moment, what would make it truly useful—clarity, privacy, prayer, practical steps, crisis resources, community, or something else?
I appreciate that this does not ask anyone to fix everything at once. The whole series keeps bringing it back to one stitch, one truth, and one next step.
