Access to the iOS Talk app updates before general release

[TimMumsnet]

Ahoy iOS users!

Want to try the new iOS Talk app features before they're released on the App Store?

We're constantly working on new features in the iOS Talk app, and we love hearing what Mumsnetters have to say about them. By downloading and using the beta Talk app, you are helping us build a beautiful and useful app that makes parents lives easier.

Interested & have 2-3 minutes?

1. Enter your name & email (your Apple ID) here
2. Check your inbox, hit 'Start Testing'
3. Follow the instructions to download the app
4. You're set! 🎉

As with all new things, there is a higher chance of bugs. If you're unhappy with the beta version you can revert to the current App Store version at any time.

This isn't going to introduce skim links into the app is it?

I'm going to keep out of this conversation

To date, the app contains no skimlinks and it's not something we're currently working on.

Brilliant, thanks Tim.

What's a skim link?
I'm on it now, I quite like it so far

Skimlinks are referring to this thread. And I'm glad to hear!

I am on the new beta version (updated yesterday) and we have lost emoticons on this version. All it comes up with is the text in square brackets. Just thought you should know :)

That's been fixed as far as I know. There's a very latest version which has done it.

PS - Check your Test Flight etc.

Apologies @choccyfiend78 - emoticons were missing in the first release, so I fixed and re-released. My bad
