Can I use BugHerd to test a native app?
- Last updated on January 17, 2024 at 5:59 AM
BugHerd is designed to work on websites and web apps rather than native (iOS or Android) apps, but what if your project includes testing on a native app?
You can still include feedback and bugs you find in a native app, by emailing a task through to your BugHerd project. You can even include a screenshot of the issue in your email.
Emailing tasks to BugHerd
Each BugHerd project includes an email address. This email address is project-<your project key>@bugs.bugherd.com.
Note: If you're planning on emailing tasks regularly, you may want to create an alias for the project email, to make it easier to remember.
Where can I find my project key?
Click Settings on the Task Board, then select General Settings.
The General Settings window appears where you can view and copy your project key.
How do I email a task to my BugHerd project?
- Open the app you want to give feedback for.
- Take a screenshot of the issue. You can annotate the screenshot if you want.
- Email the screenshot to your project email. You need to include a subject line. You also need to send the email from the email you log in to the BugHerd project with.
This short video shows you what to do. - The Task appears in your Task Board, including the screenshot, subject line and any extra text you added.
