can anyone help me with testing

I have a long standing issue with revmob in my apps. I have Revmob in 2 apps and I have installed about 20+ different apps to test it. All the apps were new to me and I have had my device on contract from new. I gave installed, opened and used the apps but approximately 40-50% of the time the installs do not register with revmob and I get zero revenue. I have contacted revmob who can't find anything wrong. Would be great if i could get some more folks to test it on my apps so i have more evidence than just my own installs to go on. Apps are here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.scottishbagpipesfreeversion https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.globalpiperhire

Sorry I can't help with testing, don't have an android device. However, Revmob states that their Android inventory is not that high and I'm sure it depends on the target country of the ads being displayed... Try mixing up your ad network a bit. There are several tutorials on Buzztouch for including: adMob leadbolt airpush chartboost and another that I cannot think of at the moment. perhaps you'll have luck testing those out!

@willjj85 Thanks. Can you now click on an ad and install and open the app from ad. This will not cost anything as Revmob apps rely on actual in app purchases once you get so far into the game. This will allow me to see the click on revmob and install. Once you do that just uninstall the game you downloaded as simply installing and opening is enough for it all to register. Thanks

That's interesting. I have gs2 and it just opens straight to the play store for whatever app revmob is promoting at that time. Never heard of this before. Are you using wifi or data network?

Ah. Either the ad blocked or it might suggest i forgot to add the wifi permission to the manifest. It may only work on data plan. I will check once i get home from work. Thanks

Thanks. That one did register. Which app did you install it from? And which app did you install from ad? Would very much like perhaps another 2 or 3 folks test this over different times to get different apps from revmob just so I get more to go on like devices that did not register install etc. Thanks

@willjj85 thanks. If you would like to help further then you could always try clicking the ad again later to see if the offered app has changed. Earlier today it was campus life but now you say its blood brothers. The first install of an app registered fine on ny device but 2nd and 3rd did not so if you do install another later then please get me know. This will allow me to find out if only the first install is registering on each device which i could then inform Revmob of. Once again thanks for your help

@willjj85 sorry for the delayed response. Yes that other one registered also. Thanks for testing but its still a mystery as to why my own device does not register installs. Thanks again
