  • If you are testing on a Cloud device (e.g. emulator or Perfecto), you probably want an IPA or APK file which you can find in #mobile-gps-releases slack channel

  • If you are testing on a physical iOS device, you’ll need to be added to our TestFlight account. Jonathon Wright can set you up here. This will give you access to Beta builds, usually a few weeks before they are published in the App Store.

  • If you are testing on a physical Android device, we recommend you sideload APK files. We do have a Google Beta program, but it tends not to give you much control over exactly what version you are running.

Details of all the latest builds, APK & IPA files, and what builds you will find on TestFlight Beta, can be found in the #mobile-gps-releases public slack channel.
