Beta

You are in. Here is what comes next.

You got a link to the Boo beta from me directly. This page takes you from that link into the app, and tells you what to do when something feels off. That is all it does.

  1. Install TestFlight

    Apple's free app for beta tests: TestFlight in the App Store.

  2. Open the link on your iPhone

    Tap the invitation link I sent you. TestFlight opens. Tap Accept, then Install.

  3. Open Boo and sign in

    Enter your email address. Boo sends you a six-digit code, there is no password. The code is good for one hour; if it does not arrive, look in spam.

  4. Write your first page

    Boo shows you around once and then asks today's question. One page a day is the whole idea.

Updates

New versions come through TestFlight. Turn on Automatic Updates for Boo there and you do not have to think about it. Small fixes arrive straight in the app: Boo asks once, "A new version is ready".

Something feels off?

Take a screenshot. TestFlight then offers Share Beta Feedback, which reaches me together with the iPhone model and iOS version. Or just tell me, the same way you got the link. If Boo crashes, TestFlight sends me a report on its own.

Good to know

  • This is a beta. Things can break, and an update can change how something looks.
  • Everything you write stays. When Boo comes to the App Store in December, you simply switch to the store version and your pages, groups and stickers are all still there.
  • Beta extras: once I have unlocked your account, the Rauhnächte book shows Tester: walk the twelve nights now. It opens a preview with its own date, so you can try all twelve nights before December. Your real Rauhnächte stay untouched.
  • To stop testing: TestFlight → Boo → Stop Testing, or simply delete the app. To delete your data as well, first go to Me → Delete account in Boo.
  • TestFlight shares crash reports and your feedback with me. Details in the privacy policy, section 2.16.
