Ignited Takes (Test)Flight
🕑 Added 2023-12-17 18:38:24 +0000 UTCIgnited was accepted into TestFlight External Beta Testing today! That means I can now support many more users, and no longer need anyone's UDID. In light of this, OTA installation will be removed in favor of TestFlight. Anyone that already has installed an OTA version can continue to use that until it expires in January.
Changes to tiers will be as follows:
- Ignited Supporter: 1 OTA Device -> TestFlight on all your devices
- Ignited Supporter: Access to private discord channels will be removed
- Blazing Supporter: 2 OTA Devices -> TestFlight on all your devices
- Blazing Supporter: Access to private discord channels remains unchanged
- Lit Supporter: 3 OTA Devices -> TestFlight on all your devices
- Lit Supporter: Access to private discord channels remains unchanged
- Lit Supporter: In-app shoutout remains unchanged
The following policy will be established to ensure that I can more easily keep track of a large number of users:
- Your name on Patreon must be your full name, no initials or handles will be allowed. For example, if your name is John Doe, that must be what I see when I view my current patrons. Not JD, John D, or anything else that would make it difficult to distinguish you from other patrons. Not adhering to this requirement will result in you not being added to TestFlight, regardless of your pledge status.
- You must have access to the email address you used to sign up for Patreon. That is where the TestFlight invitation email will be sent. It does NOT need to be the same as your Apple ID email in order to access TestFlight, but having them be the same will help me better keep track of users.
Current patrons that meet this new requirement will be added to TestFlight over the coming days. Feel free to message me for any clarifications or questions you may have about this transition. I hope you all have a good holiday season and the new year greets you as well as it has for me.

Yes, and the initial TestFlight install will simply overwrite your OTA install and keep all its data intact
Fred Bennet
Sync should carry all data over

Yes the AltStore source will still be updated and maintained, probably less frequently than TestFlight, since I can more easily push small incremental builds to TestFlight.

Will the alt store version still be supported just in case Apple does some stuff
