Surprise! I took some time to go through the process of getting Thunder available on TestFlight for iOS users!

Hopefully, this will be more convenient for those on iOS who were previously unable to install the app through AltStore.

The plan is to hopefully be able to release the same versions of Thunder on Android as an APK (as it is currently), and on TestFlight for feature parity.

Thanks again for all the support so far, and share the word!

Do you have a rough privacy policy? Just the basics like what telemetry exists, what user data do you store and for how long?

Edit: just FYI, your linked github repo still lists the alpha version as the latest release

At the moment, the only telemetry that exists is the use of Sentry.io to collect any errors that are thrown while using the app. This is purely to help determine any major issues following a release that might need to be fixed ASAP. To summarize, the data that is collected is pretty much the error itself, and generic device information (e.g., OS version - iOS 16, type of device - iPhone 12, etc.)

I do plan to make this an opt-in feature in the next release because I’m aware that people may not necessarily want to share that information! I hope that answers your question 😅

Yeah, unfortunately it seems like Apple’s versioning only allows numerical values for the version code. So the release on TestFlight is the same as the alpha version, it’s just missing the -alpha label!
