Meerkat is finally coming to Android, public beta now open

Meerkat took the world by storm recently, but it was only available on iOS. Today that is changing as they are inviting Android users to sign up for a public beta.

This isn’t a “normal” Google Play beta in which you simply become a tester and join a particular community, giving you the rights to download the beta from Google Play.

For now, they are only offering a simple sign up page, which is powered by Google Docs. They didn’t divulge if there will be a limit to the amount of people they will accept, so if you’re at all interested, I would click the link below right now. It’s likely that when they start accepting testers, it will operate much like a “normal” Google Play beta app.

Meerkat really needs to get their Android version up soon since Periscope, a new competing product, is gaining a lot of steam. Periscope isn’t available on Android yet, so Meerkat will now have a slight advantage with so many more users. However, I am sure Periscope isn’t far behind.
