This is no longer our preferred approach - where possible we prefer to distribute via AppCenter - see below. |
To test the iOS app, you will need to be set up with an account on TestFlight with one of our HD partners.
Until an HD partner gets approved for Public Beta, the number of testers they can have on TestFlight is very limited, so we may be limited in how many people we can give access in this way.

If you have a new device that you want to test on, post on the testing #testing_gaen slack channel, and tag or email Matt Buckley (Deactivated), including the UDID of the device you want to test with.
See below for access to App Center
Android
There are several steps to getting set up to test on Android
You need your google account to be whitelisted for for testing GAEN.
Once this is done, on your test device, go into Settings > Google > Covid-19 > Debug mode > and enable "Bypass app signature check".
You can get hold of APK files from App Center
For step 1, post on the testing #testing_gaen slack channel, and tag Dave Runkle Matt Buckley (Deactivated) with the Google ID that you want registered.
...
Once you have the APK file, you need to “sideload” it onto your Android device. If you are unfamiliar with that process, see here: https://androidcommunity.com/how-to-sideloading-apps-on-your-android-device-20180417/
Now you should be up & running!
Accessing App Center
To get access to AppCenter (for iOS or Android), post on the testing #testing_gaen slack channel, and tag Dave Runkle Matt Buckley (Deactivated). He will add you to AppCenter, and also add you to the “Internal QA” test group, which will give you access to builds suitable for QA as soon as they are available.
Verification Codes
For testing, it’s likely that you will also want the ability to generate Verification Codes.
To do this, you need access to (yet another) the server.
https://verify-gaen.extremesolution.com/home
To be able to create an account on this server, you’ll need your email added to an approved list. Send a DM to Art Arthur Gibson on Slack, and he will add your email to the list.
