Nextbit cautions that chosen testers will encounter bugs, are expected to provide feedback to the development team. As the post says: “Keep in mind the beta program is not intended as a way to quick way to cut to the front of the line for new software. It’s a responsibility, you accept risk on the behalf of other users.” If you own a Robin want to help out, head to the company’s community forums fill out the application.
