Get the build before everyone else.

The iOS beta runs ahead of the App Store release. You see what is coming, you break it first, and what you say about it changes the version everybody else gets.

Reserved for Plus and Premium subscribers.Places are limited and a beta build breaks in ways a release does not — so it goes to the people who are invested enough to tell me when it does.

Plus and Premium go into the queue. It is one person doing this, so give it a day or two.

03 / you installThe TestFlight link arrives by email.

Install it and the beta build sits beside your App Store one. The same address opens Locktober on the web at the same moment — one list, both places, nothing else to ask for.

Two honest warnings. A beta is a beta: you will hit rough edges, and that is the trade — you get it first, I get told what is broken while there is still time to fix it. And an in-app purchase made in a TestFlight build is a sandbox purchase, not a real one, so keep subscribing through the App Store build.
