2. Installing a test build on iOS

Apple now requires all test applications to be distributed via TestFlight.

This approach significantly simplifies the testing process for you, as it eliminates the need to install a certificate on your device and to restart it.

The TestFlight build is identical to the live app in terms of functionality and behavior. Within this test build, you will be able to validate the following features, which before wasn’t possible in test applications:

• Push notifications
• Background location updates
• Whenever a new TestFlight version becomes available, you will automatically get notified when a new version is available.

There are two scenarios on how to install a TestFlight application.
