About TestFlight

TestFlight is Apple's official beta testing platform for distributing and testing pre‑release apps and App Clips across iOS, iPadOS, macOS, tvOS, watchOS, and visionOS. Developers invite testers via email or public links, configure automatic updates globally or per app, and collect actionable feedback and crash reports. Each build is available for up to 90 days with a visible countdown. Testers can install on up to 30 devices per account and must meet OS requirements (e.g., iOS 16+, macOS 13+). In‑app purchases are free only during beta testing and do not carry over to the App Store version. TestFlight also supports accelerated subscription renewals, automatic download of in‑app content, and reporting of problematic beta content.
