In recent years, and since Apple compared the Test Flight platform to integrate it into the iOS developers section, it has been continuously adding improvements so that developers have it easier and easier when creating their applications and that it is analyzed by users before the release of the final version.
The latest novelty offered by this platform is found in the announcement that Apple made at this year's WWDC. From this moment on, any developer can post a link to your app beta, so that any user can download it through the Test Flight application and thus collaborate in its final development phase.
In this way, developers can quickly get feedback from users publishing the links to their apps in beta phase on their social networks. This type of link is limited to the number of downloads previously established by the developer, with a maximum of 10.000.
Until now, the only way you could offer your beta applications to users was through your email address, which made this process tedious and time-consuming.
All links that are publicly advertised they will expire after 90 days, The same term currently offered by the developers to be able to test the different versions of the betas that they offer through this application. Although the final version of the application is paid, the betas can be downloaded completely free of charge. If it contains in-app purchases, these are also available for free.
TestFlight is available for download completely free of charge and only works with apps designed for iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch and Apple TV. The developers of applications for Mac continue to be the community that seems to understand the least with Apple and is left out, once again, of this platform.
