A few more thoughtful tips - Install analytics like Flurry in your app, even if just for beta testing. Track as much info automatically so you don't rely only on posted feedback. Some users are quiet, but you want to know how they scored/progressed - this is how. - I've had great success recruiting from TouchArcade.com for games. If you are having trouble finding volunteers, try there. - Offer a name in the credits to those who submit written feedback (if that's your style). It's more incentive for users to openly express their POV. nice discussion, I agree with the above. A few more thoughtful tips
