Rule summary
- Don’t spam: This has been added to the subreddit rules because it seems it needs to be defined. Advertising services in the comments of every post in the sub is spam.
- No Soliciting: This is a place to test apps, not peddle your junk.
Works well
- A showcase post for your app that explains what it does and asks people to test it.
- A post naming the platform your app runs on, since the community welcomes any app platform.
- A feedback request tied to a specific feature or flow you want testers to try.
- A launch announcement framed as news about a new project, which is what the community says it spreads.
- Genuine comments on other people's app posts that give feedback instead of pitching.
Avoid
- Advertising your services in the comments of other people's posts, which the rules call out as spam.
- Using the subreddit to peddle your product instead of letting people test it.
- Posting with no app to test, just a pitch or a link drop.
- Treating the comment sections as a place to market to other developers.
- Framing your post as a request for users when it is really a solicitation.
What r/TestMyApp Is For
r/TestMyApp is a place where developers showcase the apps they have built, on any app platform they please. The community describes itself as helping developers get the news out on new projects, and it has been doing that since 2015. The people posting here are developers who want their hard work seen and tested, and the people reading are there to try apps and give feedback. If you built something, this is a room built for showing it.
Rules That Matter Before Posting
Two rules decide everything here. The first is “Don’t spam”, and its own text defines spam as advertising services in the comments of every post in the sub. The second is “No Soliciting”, which says this is a place to test apps, not peddle your junk. Together they draw a clear line: you can show an app and ask for testing, but you cannot use the community or its comment sections as a sales channel.
What To Post
A good post here is a showcase of an app you built, presented so people can actually test it. Say what the app does, what platform it runs on, and what kind of feedback you want. You are asking people to try your work, not to buy from you, so keep the framing on testing and feedback. If you have a project that is genuinely ready for hands-on use, that is exactly the news this community exists to spread.
What To Avoid
The fastest way to get removed here is to advertise your services in the comments of other posts, because the rules name that exact behavior as spam. The second way is to post anything that reads as soliciting, meaning you are trying to peddle something rather than have your app tested. A post that is really an ad wearing an app costume will not survive. Keep every post focused on testing, and keep every comment free of your sales pitch.

Common questions about r/TestMyApp
Can I drop my service link in the comments of other posts?
No. The rules ban advertising services in the comments of every post in the sub.
Can I post asking people to buy or sign up for something?
No. The community exists to test apps, not to peddle junk.
Is there anywhere else connected to this community?
The description mentions a Discord server, so that is the community's own space, but the rules still apply to how you behave here.
