Play Console won’t tell you when your testers leave. ConsoleKeep will.
Google needs 12 opted-in testers for 14 continuous days before you can apply for production. One tester drops out at 11pm and the streak silently resets. ConsoleKeep watches the count for you and alerts you before it breaks.
Add to Chrome — free See paid plans
No account. Reads one number off your own Play Console Dashboard. Not affiliated with Google. Does not supply testers.
“12 testers have currently been opted in for 9 days continuously”
The chip sits right under Google’s own sentence. Amber at exactly 12 — zero margin. Red below.
How it works
1. Install and allow
Install the extension, click “Allow on play.google.com/console”. That’s the only site it can see.
2. Open your app’s Dashboard
ConsoleKeep reads the opted-in count and the continuous-day count that Google already shows there.
3. Get told when it changes
Chrome notification and an email the moment a check sees the count drop — and a reminder if it can’t see your Dashboard.
4. It keeps checking
On a paid plan, ConsoleKeep opens your Dashboard in a background tab every few hours and reads the count itself, so you don’t have to remember to look.

Straight answers
Does it work when Chrome is closed?
No — nothing can read your Play Console without your browser and your Google sign-in. With Chrome running, paid plans check every few hours automatically; free plans update whenever you open the Dashboard yourself. If ConsoleKeep can’t see the page (Chrome closed, signed out), it tells you rather than pretending.
Does it see my testers’ emails?
No. It reads two numbers from the Dashboard sentence and nothing else. Nothing from Play Console is sent to our server. See the privacy notice.
What if Google changes the page?
The extension says “can’t read the tester count here” instead of guessing, and we update it. It never shows a number it didn’t read.
Does it get me testers or production access?
No. It watches the count you already have. Getting to 12 is on you; not losing them silently is on us.
