Pre-beta preparation

Asiara controlled beta information

Asiara is preparing carefully for invited K-pop and music testers. Access will be free and controlled while content quality, account behavior, device support, notifications, and feedback operations are validated.

The controlled beta is not open to external testers yet.

No public install link, waitlist, acceptance date, or launch date is available. This page explains the planned scope without promising access.

Current product scope

What Asiara is preparing to include

This is a working beta scope, not a promise of complete content coverage or permanent feature availability.

Home and Following

Verified Home News, relationship-aware Following, account-backed Following unread state, and a separately labeled Fan Watch lane.

Catalog and tracking

K-pop and music entity discovery and follows, Saved News, Release Calendar, and starred Calendar events.

Trust and alerts

Original-source access where supported and optional phone push only on an approved build, supported device, and user permission.

Relationship-aware Following

Connected activity without unrelated noise.

Follow an approved artist, group, member, or other music entity to shape Home > Following. Directly linked content is eligible, along with official solo content for active members of a followed group and group-wide content for a directly followed member.

Unrelated sibling-member solo activity stays out of that relationship. Opening an eligible News or Calendar item marks it read for the connected Following experience.

Sources and corrections

Review the context, not just the headline.

Open Source on eligible content to see the original coverage. Verified and Fan Watch use different labels and should not be treated as the same kind of claim. Dates, summaries, relationships, and availability can change during beta.

If something appears wrong, send the affected item, claimed problem, and supporting source through Corrections. Reports receive human review and never publish changes automatically.

Tester expectations

A real product that is still being refined.

Expect change

  • Catalog and content coverage will be incomplete.
  • Dates, statuses, relationships, summaries, and features may change.
  • Maintenance and Known Issues will be communicated.
  • No uptime, permanent access, or release-date promise is made.

Protect private access

  • Protect your email, OTP, invite code, and app session.
  • Do not share codes, admin screens, logs, or unpublished content.
  • Sanitize screenshots before sharing feedback.
  • Send account, privacy, and security issues privately.

Invite access

How access will work

When an invitation is issued, approved testers will receive the appropriate private build and access instructions. TestFlight and Google Play may become available on different schedules after each platform passes its own gates.

  1. Receive a private Asiara invitation and approved build instructions.
  2. Install only through the approved platform testing route.
  3. Sign in inside Asiara using email OTP.
  4. Redeem the private invite code inside Beta Access.
  5. Use private Support if account or device help is needed.

Temporary beta policy

One active account per device

For normal beta use, keep one active Asiara account on each app installation or device. Sign out where possible before changing accounts. Device transfer or reset help is handled privately.

Get device help

Separate systems

Discord and Ko-fi do not grant access

Discord membership, roles, reactions, or messages do not control app access. Ko-fi is delayed until after the controlled beta and will not purchase access, influence, ownership, or guaranteed features.

Common questions

Beta FAQ

Can I join now?

No open signup or public waitlist exists yet. Access will be limited to selected testers, and no invitation date is promised.

Will iPhone and Android launch together?

TestFlight and Google Play are parallel paths, but either platform may proceed only after its own build and operational gates pass.

Is all K-pop covered?

No. Starter coverage is intentionally limited and will expand only as catalog, source, and review capacity allow.

Are push notifications required?

No. Push is optional. Home > Following remains the destination for eligible unread updates.

Does a source mean every claim is verified?

No. An approved source can enter a reviewed workflow, but the evidence and claim type still require human evaluation.

Where can I ask for help?

Use the private route that matches your question. Never post OTPs, invite codes, tokens, or private account details publicly.
