What is it?

If you have ever made a website/app/game, you'll know how hard / expensive it is to test on multiple devices and platforms.

This project will make device testing easier by providing devices for testing your websites, apps and games.

You can pre-book one hour slots in the device lab using the perks.

(Above: an example device lab)


Where will it be?

The location will be Spinningfields, Manchester, UK.



When will it open?

How will it work?

You can book an hour slot or more, and during the time you can test your new app/website/game on all the available devices. You could also test html email templates on real devices to make sure your clients are getting the best possible experience.
