Once your mobile app is developed, we will send you the app for testing. There are different methods to send you the mobile app for testing. Either we will send you the APK (Android Package) or we will publish the app (Alpha and Beta version) in the Google Play Store Console and ask you to download the app from the Google Play Store Console for testing. We always recommend downloading the app from the Google Play Store Console as this is the better option to send your app for testing than sending the APK file of the app.
