When creating an application, during its development different trial versions are created so that third parties can start using it, testing its operation and reporting any operational problems they may encounter during a certain period of time. In desktop ecosystems it is very easy to be able to participate in this type of program, however, in the Apple iOS mobile platform, it is a bit more complex, at least it was until Apple bought the TestFlight platform, with which the developers They can invite people to test beta applications before they are released on the App Store.
The guys from Cupertino have announced that they have again expanded the number of beta testers that can test applications before launching on the App Store. Previously the limit was 2.000 users, but from now on that number is extended to 10.000, undoubtedly a very important extension that will allow developers to obtain a greater number of feedback from users to be able to launch their applications as soon as possible. As we can read on the website for Apple developers:
Now you can get more valuable feedback by inviting up to 10.000 users to test your apps before posting them to the App Store. TestFlight makes it easy to invite testers just by entering their email so they can report problems found or comment on the operation of the application directly from TestFlight.
When Apple launched TestFlight after acquiring this platform in 2014, the user limit was 1.000, a limit that was doubled in 2015 to 2.000 and two years later it has been expanded to 10.000. In order to be part of this beta program, we have to be in contact with the developer to include us and automatically receive a notification in the TestFlight application to be able to download the latest version available before landing in the App Store.
