If that’s true, it’s one the more ridiculous updates Apple has hit us with in recent years. What also infuriates me, is there isn’t any information online (that I can find), officially explaining how the new Testflight actually works. All of their support documentation is for older versions.
They sent out an email a few weeks about about the TF iOS 8 details. It should be on the dev centre somewhere too. Every beta requires a “special beta approval process”. It’s also currently only open to internal testers that are part of your dev team. External testers are coming soon.
If this is true, it will be a huge problem for all Corona / TestFlighApp users.
Any official comments from Corona? Rob Miracle? Anybody?
I must’ve missed that email, and you’d think they would have instructions on their dev centre, I can’t find them anywhere though. If someone finds any information, please post a link!
Time to look for TestFlight alternatives. I am sure they will popup in no time. Please post on the forums if you find something viable. Thanks
I’ve asked this on another thread, but we are going to need a bug report for engineering to have to track this. If someone could take the Hello World sample app and try to go through the process of creating a beta with Apple’s testflight app. Use it as the required upload project, include this forum thread, any messages you get and some screen shots along the way, we would greatly appreciate it.
Please post the bug ID number back here when you get the email from the bug tracker.
Thanks

I submitted the bug report for this. Case 35827
I had a tester with “old” TestFlight successfully install a Corona build on his new iPhone 6 Plus running iOS 8 today (after not being able to several days ago). I wonder if Apple changed something…
Interesting I just installed the build on my iPhone 5S with iOS 8. The same build I was not able to install a few days ago. It seems it’s working again. Apple or testFlightApp must have changed something in the meantime.
Is this related?

And can someone please explain what’s meant by old TestFlight vs Apple TestFlight?
Sorry, I’ve been too deep in other code to have followed iOS 8 and Apple/TestFlight developments. Did they purchase the company or something? Anyone have a link with info about that?
Thanks
Old TestFlight is referring to http://testflightapp.com, the service that was around before Apple acquired them. Apple TestFlight would be how Apple assimilated them and integerated it with iTunes connect.

I am having this exact same issue. Any updates on this???
