Is there an option on Facebook to make your app public?

I can't remember if Facebook has that option or not -- I thought it did.

I know that several other sites that you can create apps for have a similar option.

Normally when you first create an app they default to only being available to you.

As I recall Facebook has the notion of testers that you can define for that app -- presumably to make the app available to a larger but limited number of people.

Kind of make sense that while you are developing an app you want it to be available only to yourself or a limited number of testers. Then when you are ready to release it to the public in general, you change the setting and anyone can use it.

Flickr does this, and I though Facebook did it as well. I can't find the option on Facebook at the moment -- but then I can never find any options on Facebook. Check your various settings on your app and see if there isn't something like this.
