Now that Apple have integrated Tesflight into itunesconnect I thought it was time I took a look.
I have fallen at the first hurdle - when you invite a tester to test an app they are told they must have the Testflight app installed on their device, but the Testflight app requires iOS8 or later and if you have iOS7 it seems you can't be a tester.
So my question is...am i missing something and is there a way to use Apple's new Testflight beta testing system with iOS7 users?
TestFlight supports iOS 8 and up.
You can use TestFlight on up to 10 devices and test multiple apps for multiple developers — there is no limit to the number of apps that you can test simultaneously. TestFlight can be used to test iOS apps on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch running iOS 8 or later. Mac apps cannot be tested. If the beta app does not load on your device, contact the developer.
For the time being, until we'll drop iOS 7 support, we use Crashlytics for all of our beta testing.
I'd also like to add that for a free service, Crashlytics gave us the best support so far.
