MFRM Android Beta Program

Last Published on 13th October 2021 by Krissy King

Sleep.com Android Beta Program

As a MFRM Sleep.com organizer, you may want to introduce features to your team that are part of the Sleep.com Android Beta Program. When you opt in to become a beta tester for our Android app, you will have a chance to try out the newest features while we are still working on them (and to help us improve with your feedback!). After you join our the Android Beta Program, you will be switched over from using the default Sleep.com app, to our special beta app with additional functionality.


What is the Android Beta Program?

We are continuously working to implement and improve features and functionality across our applications and we utilize our Beta programs to test usability across Android and iOS devices.

The Android operating system has a large collection of phone models (over 25,000 models). While we are continually working to validate more Android phones, not all Android models are fully supported. Our beta programs allow us to test our sonar technology on a wider variety of phones at a much faster rate, by enrolling users with unsupported phones directly in the app. This will help us to ensure each phone model produces accurate scores. By joining, users acknowledge that their sleep data may not meet the same level of accuracy as that of validated phones.

  • All devices that we support go through a Validation process.
  • The data we collect in the beta program are passed to the ResMed research team.
  • The ResMed team then runs a thorough end-to-end test to determine if the phones hardware is sufficient to support the sleep tracking technology.
  • If the Phone detected has not currently been validated, the user will be prompted to ‘Join the Beta’ group.
  • There are minimum requirements to pass the beta testing, including the number of devices participants to support the research.

Become a Android Beta tester

Once you opt in to becoming a beta tester, you will have access to all the new beta features we are currently working on (and will eventually transition into the public app).

How it works

  1. On your Android device, go to the Sleep.com app in the Google Play Store.
  2. Install and open the Sleep.com app on your device.
  3. Follow the steps to create your account.
  4. If we have detected that your device is available for beta testing you will be presented with a notification with instructions and the option to “Join the Beta”.
  5. After selecting Join The Beta, you will be added to the beta program.
  6. A “Beta” badge will display on features that we are part of the testing validation process.
