Quick fixes

If it doesn’t work

  1. Check the account. The Google account used to join the group must be the same one selected in the Play Store.
  2. Wait a few minutes. New group membership can take a little time to reach Google Play.
  3. Try the steps again in order. Join the group first, then open the closed-test app link.
  4. Refresh Google Play. Close and reopen the Play Store, or restart your phone, then try again.
