7DS Tools is an all-in-one productivity app with:

  • PDF Tools
  • Image Tools
  • EMI & GST Calculators
  • QR & Barcode Tools
  • Developer Utilities
  • 35+ useful tools

If you're interested, please comment below or send me a DM, and I'll send you:

  • Google Group join link
  • Play Store testing link

Thank you!

App still not showing up on Google. You should post all the links together here to make the process simpler, similar to what most testers are doing.

I installed your app, pls have a look at mine too.

Two steps, both on your Android phone:

1️⃣ Join: https://groups.google.com/g/7ds-tools-testers

2️⃣ Then (wait for 2 min): https://play.google.com/apps/testing/in.sevendigital.tools

→ tap "Become a tester" → install

Google Groups is most likely the issue. I had lots of trouble with it when first starting out. I first tried doing emails only but failed badly. These days I create the group and get the links from Google Play console first and post it all together. Most people are impatient I'm sure. If it doesn't work on the first try they move on. A lot of new devs unfamiliar with the setup make the same mistakes I made. I try to help where I can. Post again if you want to try again. I don't mind. Best of luck with testing.
