So that explains why they dropped android support.

  Android now has first party testing support via the Play Store. I'd imagine it's hard to compete with that.

    It's great for distributing to wider group of external beta users but sucks for internal testing, especially if you want an API that can be used by a CI system. At my workplace we use TestFlight integrated with Jenkins. We commit to the repo, Jenkins builds the APK, and submits to TestFlight. Then our QA team can pull the latest build onto their device and test, and we get crash reports if things go south. That tight loop is not as easy with the Play beta testing.

      My workplace is _exactly_ the same. Bummer about Android Support. But on the flip side, installing apks outside of PlayStore is actually very easy on Android. Compared to the provisioning-profile stuff involved with iOS. I guess I'm about to write a small in-house nightly web-server that just has APK urls for download & install.

      Again shameless plug for our service - Vessel.io We have a Jenkins plugin, which enables you to exactly achieve this use case.

  Android support is dropped? My CI is uploading APKs just fine, and I can still upload APKs through their web interface.
