Sometimes, after step 3, you have to click inside a "Text color" field, but this should enable the "Test on device" option. After that you add the device Install ID, make sure to quit the app before the actual test, and then I wait for the confirmation toast to open the app up again. As long as the ID is 100% correct, the test should work as intended.
