Ahead of the release of iOS 18.1 to the public next week, Apple today released a major update to TestFlight. The new version comes with a new design and new features that were teased at WWDC 2024 in June. Read on as we detail everything that’s new with the TestFlight update.
TestFlight gets a new design with update
For those unfamiliar, TestFlight is a platform from Apple that lets developers distribute beta versions of their apps to iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV, Apple Watch, and Apple Vision Pro users.
As we previously reported, the new version of TestFlight has been redesigned to make it easier to use. The interface is now more similar to the App Store interface, which includes a description of the app and screenshots. Previously, TestFlight only showed developer notes on what to test.
But there are some other new features coming to TestFlight, such as Tester Criteria to filter the audience of a beta app. With Tester Criteria, developers can distribute their beta apps to specific devices and iOS versions to test specific behavior. Multiple criteria can be set, and they work for both private invitations and public TestFlight links.
In addition, users can share with a developer why they decided not to join a beta test. The update also comes with bug fixes and overall improvements.
TestFlight 3.6.0 is now being rolled out, and you can download the app for free from the App Store.
