How do people go about getting their apps tested. Like who do you get to test them?
Usually myself or my team
I ask my mom because she is older and will have the least intuition on how to use it, so if she can find her way to using it, likely the UX is great.
Option 1 test it yourself.
Option 2 Pay others to test it. you can find cheap freelancer that will do it for 10 or 20 bucks in fiverr and upwork.
Option 3 If you have a strong social media post it there and ask for feedback if not pay influencers to promote your app. You’ll easily get lots of feedback from the comments section.
