Very clearly and completely explained (which is not the norm with the majority of how-to videos). The presence of error messages during the process and description of how to correct the errors was invaluable.

@superkaboose1066 3 года назад

This is possible the most clear and best tutorial ever made, perfect man!

@rhk231 3 года назад

exactly no doubt :)

@johncummins1515 2 года назад

Agreed

@clayfulgham21 2 года назад

Hands down the most relatable and authentic reaction to an error at 12:57 .. Excellent video Thanks

@cjw6659 2 года назад

That made me laugh! Been there so many times 🤣

@samarghourab5545 Год назад

😂 Hahaha I felt his pain too.

@seancharles1595 Год назад

This has become my GO TO reference. I am currently managing some apps for a company and I need to refresh the testflight images every three months, this video saved my bacon the first time. I always trust developers with a cool first name.

@thomasfriehoff8448 Год назад

Thank you for this video. The current version of XCode and the appearance of the websites did change a little since the video was recorded, but still *VERY* useful! It helped me to upload my first IOS App in less than 3 hours. After another 5 hours the app was available to the Beta-Testers.

@hoshyarkarimi 3 года назад

Thank you Sean. You inspired me to develop apps for Apple. Unfortunately I'm an Iranian developer and we are under sanctions and can't get connected to the international banking. Talked to my sister who lives in Stockholm she opens a master card account and lets me use it for Apple development like dev subscription and incomes from my work. I'll be your loyal channel member as soon as I receive bank account. Thank again.

@seanallen 3 года назад

It's all good, Fernando. I appreciate the support 😀

@richardlewis2583 2 года назад

I can't remember the last time i commented on a RU-vid video, but Sean, this was excellent, so clear and so so helpful. Followed you along and released my first app (beta) to TestFlight. Thanks again for taking the time to put this out there

@michaelbouril5278 Год назад

This is by far the best walkthrough/tutorial/guide for TestFlight I have seen in the near decade I have been working with iOS apps, you rock man!

@seanallen Год назад

Thanks for the kind words, Michael!

@AC-wh9lv 3 года назад

This was so helpful - just an FYI for those working with WatchKit/Apple Watch: Make sure if you are changing the version number: change them on all targets (main/extension) and to go pricing and availability and uncheck "Apple Silicon Mac - Availability." Take care everyone and stay safe!

@seanallen 3 года назад

Glad you found it helpful and thanks for pointing out changing the build numbers on the extensions as well!

@seanoreilly968 2 года назад

This video just straight up worked. One hour (and 100 smackaroos spent on Apple Dev subscription) and I'm on testflight! Thanks for the no-fluff tutorial!

@michael.burbank 2 месяца назад

I always appreciate Sean and his tutorials. No matter the focus, he does an excellent job adding in his own experience to help paint a better picture. This video is outdated but it will still work for someone brand new using TestFlight. Thank you as always.

@seanallen 2 месяца назад

Thanks for the kind words! I'm going to create an updated version of this video, but waiting until after WWDC to make sure there's no major changes.

@BanCorporateOwnedHouses Год назад

One of the best tutorials I have ever seen for Apple. Clear, simple, and to the point. Thank you!

@seanallen Год назад

Glad you enjoyed it and found it helpful, Brandon!

@alejmc 3 года назад

Thanks for this comprehensive walkthrough to submitting and testing apps. Greatly appreciated. When looking for it there was a ‘fastlane’ thing going on with CI and whatnot, utterly complicated for just starting... but later down the line maybe it would be great to have some pointers of how to set that up or maybe first just your thoughts and if it is even necessary for 1-2 man dev team.

@MM-kc8ch Год назад

Thank you, really! Every time I upload my build on App Store I rewatch your video. It's so easy to understand

@ScottBarrettihq Год назад

Great stuff - seriously... so great. Here's a thing that kept catching me up, was the icons being saved without an alpha - they NEED to NOT have an alpha and that doesn't necessarily work using photoshop. What worked for me is opening the icon in preview, exporting and unchecking 'alpha'. then swap out the 1024 store icon with that new one. Took me probably 8 tries to finally get it right and I see on a 5 year old forum that the problem was happening back then. Hope this helps someone.

Excellent succinct and direct to the point guide to TestFlight! I am at the first 90% and very close to stepping into the second 90% lol (check the advice to new devs video from Sean). I have already started gathering my close contacts info so I can get this off the ground. I am sure I will refer to this over and over. Many thanks Sean!

Great video. Would be nice if you could include environment settings into this tutorial. How would I do this for an acceptance environment that uses different URL’s and settings from production? Food for thought

@prosperva 2 года назад

Hi Allen. Thanks for this awesome tutorial. One thing I still find most frustrating is Provisioning Profiles, especially when it comes to Push Notifications. Do you create different profiles for when developing, when in testing in TestFlight and when the app is released? Thanks again.

@akshatjain671 2 года назад

Thanks for an amazing! video, literally saved me a whole lot of time. A quick note: i was facing an error after adding my target team which read 'failed to create provisioning profile. There are no devices registered in your account on the developer website.' I resolved this issue by going to my Certificates, Identifiers and Profiles page, going to devices and adding a device using the UDID Number of an iPhone. This resolved the issue.
