How to become a beta tester

We do not have any special requirements. All you need is to use AdGuard, update to the beta version when it is available, and report all spotted bugs.

One important thing, though: you will need either a forum or GitHub account (or both :)) to become a beta tester — so you might want to do so now before going further.

How to report a bug

Let’s imagine the worst happened — you spotted a bug. Or maybe you just want to share your suggestion with developers? Anyway, there are several ways to let us know:

Go to forum.adguard.com

and post there a new thread (or find an existing one) in the beta forum category. Make sure to read forum rules first.

Go to GitHub

and find a suitable repository. Create a new issue there and describe the bug/feature request in details;

The two methods above are highly preferable, but you can also use other, if needed:

Find us on various social media, like Facebook, Reddit etc. This is not the most convenient way to discuss technical matters, though.

Contact our support team by sending an email either from in-app support tab or directly to support@adguard.com.

What else?

There is not much to add. You don’t have to go out of your way in your search for bugs. You can use AdGuard the way you normally would—just report any bugs you encounter :)

Of course, we appreciate any additional effort and/or extra forum activity, etc. From time to time, you will receive our newsletter, informing about the latest changes in beta versions (in case you miss them) and other important news. You can unsubscribe from it if you want to. And that’s all!

If you feel the urge to participate in the AdGuard beta testing program, you now know what to do!
