If you have just signed up on pCloudy for a free trial account then here are the steps to guide you to access free devices on the platform.
Step 1 Once you signup you will be exposed to your dashboard which will show you an array of devices, some insights and platform features.
Step 2 Go to the Device Page by clicking on 'Device' tab and access the comprehensive list of devices on the platform.
Here is a list of legends you might come across while trying to connect to a device.
| Devices available on cloud to test apps instantly |
 | Devices are already in use by some user so are not available to test apps instantly |

 | Paid devices that can only be accessed after purchasing a subscription plan |
Step 3 But, in order to filter out the free devices on which you can perform trial test for your app, click on 'Filters'.
Click on 'Free' under Quick sort to access all the free devices available for you to test your app.
Step 4 A list of free devices will be displayed on the screen. You can connect to any of the free devices available on cloud.
Note: You are given 60 credits in your free trial. As a free usage policy, you can only use a free device available once during your trial session. If you try to run trial test on the same device again, it will turn into a paid access and will show you 'Paid only symbol'.
