TestFlight Beta message - genuine?

19 replies

Hi all

On the mumsnet app and a pop up appeared to test a new Beta version clicked on it now it's saying download TestFlight (did this separately) and to click to start testing.

Is this genuine?

Don’t know but you’d be better off posting under the Site Stuff topic.

TestFlight is the app used to test iOS apps before they go live, so it’s not dodgy and ok to download.

I had this too! I downloaded TestFlight but no mention of MN - not sure now if it was genuine or not...

stilldoesntknowwhatshappening · 11/01/2020 00:29

Yes it's real. I did it and it is great! Loving the filter feature.

MrsBobBlackadder · 11/01/2020 00:32

@stilldoesntknowwhatshappening what happened when you went to the TestFlight app? Could you download a beta version of MN to try? I fear I might have done something wrong...

Requested this to be moved to Site Stuff

I have lost the link now! Typical. Glad it's good though Smile

I got the pop up but test flight wants me to enter a code which I don't have

stilldoesntknowwhatshappening · 11/01/2020 01:09

Yea. I had to re download TestFlight and then when I opened it there was a Mumsnet option to open and then I did.

hmmokaythen · 11/01/2020 01:13

I need the code too

Broken2020 · 11/01/2020 13:17

Same here. I downloaded test flight then lost the link so I also need a code please???

Broken2020 · 11/01/2020 13:28

@MrsBobBlackadder @hmmokaythen @lostsoulsunited @stilldoesntknowwhatshappening Open your web browser (Safari if using iPhone) and you should find the landing page that was opened when you clicked the pop up. Scroll down and click Start Testing

stilldoesntknowwhatshappening · 11/01/2020 13:34

That's exactly what i did. I've got it and didn't need any code.

lostsoulsunited · 11/01/2020 14:52

Thanks. I have a stop testing button bu5 no start testing button.

QueenOfOversharing · 11/01/2020 15:09

Oooooooh I'm loving the filter!!

hmmokaythen · 11/01/2020 16:07

I stupidly closed the page without thinking so now I'm stuck!

MrsBobBlackadder · 11/01/2020 17:17

@Broken2020 I found it and I'm now on! Thanks so much for your help Smile

Hi guys, thanks for raising this - yes it is legit, and apologies it's a bit awkward to open. Here's the link you use to signup, if you select 'start testing' you'll be able to download and use the new features we're testing for the iOS Talk App.

I just downloaded the TestFlight thing then opened Mumsnet through it and my app changed to having the filter (which I love)

Didn't need a code at all

hmmokaythen · 12/01/2020 13:22

Thanks for the link Smile
