When I first saw TestFlight I waited several months to get into the beta before I gave up and just wrote my own to use. I don't want to be all spammy but I'll post it if anyone wants.

It's all fear mongering as d_r says. Ironically, the WSJ app sends more data about a user (including the UDID) then the apps referenced in the article. Should apple change the way UDIDs are given to developers? Probably. A simple hash of th

I built AppSendr which distributes apps via this method. So far it's proven to be very useful for a wide variety of needs. I don't know why this hasn't been more publicized.

Have they stated that they're an iPhone only platform? Are there no plans to develop an Android version? A Windows version? From the blog post they say, "We’re launching first on the App Store on iPhone." implying versions for other mobile

I think a closer analogy would be poker. With craps and roulette you're at the mercy of the house and aren't in any control. Poker you're playing against other people and make your own decisions based on the cards you hold and ultimately it

That's not true, as a developer I'm well within my right to collect every piece of data I can get my hands on. That being said, I personally never would. Apple is just banning the competition for analysis of said data so they can be the onl

He's also the developer behind the three20 project which Apple has recently been rejecting apps using three20 because it was supposedly using private APIs. I can see how that can be frustrating to put in all that work in to develop a very v
