TestFlight is Apple's own app for testing apps before they're public. Testers install TestFlight, then get PixelGames through it. It distributes a build you've already [uploaded](/build/mobile-upload-ios). ## Test it yourself You can start the moment the upload finishes. Apple emails you an invite for your own build, select **View in TestFlight** to install PixelGames on your phone, the same step covered in [upload your app](/build/mobile-upload-ios). PixelGames now runs as its own app, so you can test push notifications, in-app purchases, Sign in with Apple, and anything else that needs a real installed app. ## Invite other testers To let other people try PixelGames, without them near your computer, add them as testers in App Store Connect. In App Store Connect, open PixelGames and select the **TestFlight** tab. In the sidebar, select **+** next to **External Testing**. App Store Connect TestFlight tab with the External Testing plus button highlighted Give it a name you'll recognize later, like **Beta Testers**, then select **Create**. The Create a New Group dialog with Beta Testers entered as the group name On the group page, select **Add Builds** to choose the build testers receive, then **Invite Testers** to add them by email. They each get an invite. The Beta Testers group page showing the Add Builds and Invite Testers steps Testers install the free **TestFlight** app from the App Store, accept your invite, and install PixelGames through it. Updates show up the same way. External groups go through Apple's Beta App Review before testers can install, usually about a day for the first build. Testers you add under **Internal Testing** can install right away. ## Troubleshooting * **Tester never got the invite:** double-check the email address in App Store Connect, and ask them to check spam. * **Build works for you, not for testers:** confirm they're on the same build version, an older invite link can point at a stale build. * **Tester lost access to the app:** TestFlight builds expire after 90 days, that's usually why. Submit a fresh build. ## What's next Take the tested build to a public release. Do the same for Android testers.
