Who wants to be a Beta Tester?

[worfc]

Edited to reflect changes in testing, post v1.0


WoRFC is now open for testing, and we'd <3 love <3 to have you participate!

All you need to do is:

* Have an iPad running iOS8 or later[1].
* Install TestFlight app[2]. This is the mechanism we use to deliver beta builds.
* Login to TestFlight. This may require you to create an account.
* Create an account on this forum.
* Send a PM to me (WORFC) and tell me the account-name (email) that you used to login to TestFlight.

Once I get the PM, I'll add you to the pre-release testing distribution list.

NOTE: Some people have reported difficulty creating an account. Since it has worked for many people, I believe that phpBB (this forum software) is working correctly. Be sure to check your SPAM folder for the account-activation email; that may be where things are getting hung up. I will post more troubleshooting hints here, as I learn more.



Pre-release testing works something like this:

* Every so often[3], we upload a build that with new features or bug fixes. Apple reviews it and, a short while later...
* ...You'll get an email from TestFlight saying the build is ready. Open that email on your iPad and press the install button.
* Play, test, explore!
* PLEASE write-up any bugs you find! .
* Also feel free to make any suggestions you might have.

I'd like to test it, will it run on iOS9 though, it's what I have now on my iPad? If you haven't tested it on iOS 9 I can do that.

Hopefully I can pm you after posting this message. That feature is presently disabled for me because I'm 'too new'

Hey Dennis, welcome aboard!

No, I have not tested iOS9.

I'll fix the PM thing in about 30 seconds.

NOTE: WoRFC is .

You can still join the beta team, if you like. You'll get updates to the app a week or two before the general public, and can test the new features, comment, and help decide the future of robo-farming.

(It's ok if you just want to be "a regular customer" and wait until the updates come to the app store, too. Either way, it's all good!)
