The seven problems BetaSuite was built to fix.

You can't capture screen and camera at the same time.

A video that shows "I'm tapping here, and this is what the device does" usually needs two phones and a tripod.

Dual recording films the hardware through the rear camera — front lens one tap away — and composites it picture-in-picture with your screen into one MP4 file, not two clips to sync. No tripod. No second phone.

Intermittent bugs vanish before you hit record.

By the time you've started capture, the glitch is gone — and reproducing it is a guessing game.

Switch on Instant Capture and it keeps a rolling buffer while BetaSuite is in the foreground. One tap saves the last 15–30 seconds, so an intermittent fault is caught even if you weren't recording.

NDA work makes cloud AI a non-starter.

Every cloud provider is a leak risk, so reports end up handwritten and slow.

Confidential Mode blocks cloud uploads and every cloud AI provider, and warns you before you share or export anything. On a supported iPhone or iPad, Apple Intelligence keeps running fully on-device with zero network calls, so AI polish and summaries still work on confidential hardware; on Android, Confidential Mode means no AI.

Vendor SDKs ship your data to the vendor's cloud.

Mainstream beta-testing tools send tester data to a vendor backend — fine for the company, not for sensitive prototypes.

BetaSuite has no server that stores your testing data. Your project database is encrypted on the device. Captures are saved in the app's storage and, by default, to your camera roll, so turn that off in Settings if your photo library syncs to the cloud. Beyond that, data only moves when you pick a destination: a folder your own cloud app syncs, or a portable archive file.

The weekly report is the slowest part of the job.

Blank-page paralysis, especially when you're juggling multiple programs.

The period summary drafts a structured report — theme, positives, issues, recommendations — straight from the markers and feedback you've already logged. PDF or DOCX, scannable bullets, ready to email.

Beta-testing tools are often English-only.

Multi-language support, when it exists, often ships stale and ages badly.

Now shipping in 28 languages — BetaSuite follows your device language live, so testers in Tokyo, Berlin, or São Paulo all see the app in their own.

There's no structured way to prove you tested everything.

A test plan usually lives in a spreadsheet or someone's head — so the same checklist gets re-typed every cycle, and steps quietly get skipped.

Build a reusable protocol — or let BetaSuite Assist draft one from a sentence or a manufacturer’s PDF. Run it step by step with every verdict — Pass/Fail, rating, NPS, or multiple choice — landing in the report, then share the whole set as a copy-paste code or a file.

Timeline-based sessions

Markers, voice notes, photos — all on one timeline.

Drop a one-tap marker the second something happens. Attach a screenshot, dictate a voice note, or expand into a full bug report later. Switch on device context and each marker also records the device, OS, network and battery state; with location on, sessions record the weather too.

Author test protocols on the web

No app needed — write a protocol in your browser, hand testers one code.

Engineers without the app can write a full test protocol on a simple web page, including per-step required photo, video, or dual-recording capture, then generate a single code. Testers import that code in BetaSuite and run it like any other protocol. If a tester has AI on and has allowed protocol translation, BetaSuite translates it into their app language as they import it (they can switch back to the original); the text then goes to their chosen AI provider, and it never happens in Confidential Mode. Paste the code back into the web builder any time to keep editing.

Required evidence per step

Demand a photo, video, or dual recording per step.

A protocol step can require a photo, a video or a dual recording before it can be answered — so the evidence you asked for actually comes back.

Single-run protocol reports

A focused PDF for one protocol run.

Finish a protocol run and generate a short, single-purpose PDF for just that run — separate from the full period report.

Data sidecar with every report

A .json and .csv riding alongside every PDF.

Every report can ship with a machine-readable .json and .csv beside the PDF, so an engineer can load your findings straight into their own tooling instead of re-typing them.

AI routing, your way

BetaSuite Assist by default, or switch to on-device Apple Intelligence on iPhone & iPad. Or bring your own key.

BetaSuite Assist is the default AI provider on every platform: on a supported iPhone or iPad it tries Apple Intelligence on the device first, and otherwise uses Google Gemini through Firebase. On iPhone and iPad you can pick Apple Intelligence on its own in Settings, to keep report and summary generation fully on-device. Prefer your own provider? Bring your API key for Claude, GPT, Gemini, or DeepSeek. BetaSuite Default (Pollinations) is also there if you choose it. Switch providers any time in Settings; each AI feature asks for your consent before it sends anything off the device.

Apple Intelligence and on-device transcription are iPhone & iPad features. On Android, BetaSuite uses BetaSuite Assist cloud AI or your own API key.

Dial your AI use

Choose which AI features to allow, one by one.

Allow only the AI features you want, such as wording polish on a feedback entry, voice-note transcription, or session summaries and report drafts, or turn AI off entirely. Profanity masking isn't an AI setting: an English word filter runs on every report, AI or not. The feedback form itself starts simple and expands only when you need category, severity, repro steps, annotated screenshots, and voice notes.

Project structure that scales

One project per product, Quick captures for everything else.

Group sessions, feedback, and reports under named projects. Attach NDAs and contacts per project — or skip setup entirely and use Basic mode's Quick captures list for one-off finds.

Share to Discord in one tap

Auto-compressed to fit Discord's 10 MB limit.

Sending a clip to a tester Discord? One tap compresses it to fit the 10 MB limit, instead of the upload bouncing.
