You either have received—or will soon receive—a URL inviting you to participate in a test for a company interested in getting your feedback. This feedback helps companies better understand what people are looking for and what they are experiencing on a website, app, or other digital product. This insight, in turn, helps the company continue to provide the best products, services, and experiences to customers like you. |

Before you begin

- Since we need to record audio, please make sure your phone's microphone isn't muted.
- To keep things simple, exit any other apps running in the background and turn on Do-not-disturb (DND) to silence any incoming calls.
- Please hide or remove any personal information or anything on your screen that you don't want to be recorded to protect your privacy.
- Since we'll need to upload your recording, please make sure you have a strong internet connection.
