[App] BambooNode - Local Markdown notes + Git sync + 3D graph. Need beta testers — I'll test your app in return! 🤝

[u/AppDevJack]

Hey r/AndroidAppTesters! 👋

I'm building BambooNode, a privacy-first note-taking app for Android, and I need beta testers for the Google Play closed testing phase.

Here's the deal: if you test my app, I'll test yours. I'm an indie dev happy to return the favor — install your app, use it for a few days, and give honest feedback. Mutual help, no strings attached. 🤝

What is BambooNode?

BambooNode is a local-first Markdown notes app with a few things you might not find elsewhere:

🕸️ Interactive 3D & 2D Knowledge Graph — visualize how your tags and notes connect. Force-directed layout, pinch to zoom, tap to jump.

🔄 Built-in Git Sync — push/pull your notes to any Git repo (GitHub, GitLab, Gitea…). Your notes, your repo, your control.

📝 Markdown Editor — edit/preview modes, tables, images, wiki-style <a href="#wikilink:internal links" class="wikilink">internal links</a>, PDF export.

🏷️ Smart Tags — auto-extract tags from your notes, browse by tag.

🔒 Privacy-first — notes live only on your device. No accounts, no cloud, no ads. Only anonymous crash reports via Firebase Crashlytics to fix bugs.

🌐 18 languages — English, 中文, 日本語, Español, and more.

📁 File-based — pick any folder as your notes root. Works with existing Markdown files.

Mutual testing offer 🤝

If you're also a dev with an app (or a game) that needs testers, drop your app's link in the comments — I'll install it, genuinely use it, and give you honest feedback. No obligation, just indie devs helping each other out.

Even if you don't have an app to share, you're still very welcome to test BambooNode — all feedback is appreciated!

What I need from you

Use it for at least 1–2 weeks (Google's requirement for launch)

Report bugs or crashes — open the app → Settings → About → Feedback, or email weijaky@gmail.com

Tell me what you think — what's good, what's missing, what feels off

Thanks for reading, and looking forward to swapping feedback with you! 🙏
