google play - Android Alpha/Beta testing -


my company releasing communication app android in coming weeks/months. embedded app on nexus 7 2013 device, running aosp minor modifications. makes typical remote updates complicated there's step must run install apk/libs os system folders.

the plan alpha , beta trials, , have started gathering volunteers. we'll loading apk onto devices , giving them out initially. i've found plenty of information on preparing release (unit testing, signing apk, etc) i'm looking information on alpha , beta releases.

problems:

  • we need update app remotely without bringing devices in
  • we need gather (useful) data possible on usage, device statistics, bugs , crashes

research & possible solutions:

questions:

  • have run alpha/beta trial using google play developer console? useful?
  • have used third party tools such app blade push releases , gather statistics?
  • what best practices gathering detailed statistics/feedback apps once they've been released?

thanks in advance

  1. alpha/beta tests extremely useful. can create google+ communities alpha , beta testers. add community sharing app specified users. new version can deployed , notified alpha , beta users.
    1. nups
    2. multiple ways actually: write own beacon kind of system gather information device , send using alarm manager periodically. storing logs, sql should used.
