Alfred Remote testers wanted - iPad and iPhone :)

[Andrew 827]

Hi all,

 

We are almost ready with an update to Alfred Remote which has been a fundamental rewrite of the underlying architecture. This will bring the app up to date, and take advantage of all the new iOS device sizes. This update will also pave the way for some really nice new features we have planned for the future.

 

We're looking for a small group of users who are interested in helping us test the update, so if you meet the requirements below, please add a reply in this thread. We'll then contact a handful of users directly next week with more details. Please don't be disappointed if you don't get chosen as a tester, the app will be released pretty soon anyway.

 

You should be:

 

• Existing active Alfred Remote user with your own iOS device
• An Alfred Powerpack user
• Already familiar with Alfred and Remote's features
• Able to install Apple's TestFlight app
• Available to give feedback next week

 

To be clear, we will be looking for feedback on whether Remote is working correctly on your device. This is not a call-out to tell us about the features you want or for new users who've never used Remote before, as we'll be looking for fairly specific feedback.

 

Please don't reply if you don't meet the requirements; The more efficiently we can get this tested properly, the sooner we'll be able to release Alfred Remote's latest update to everyone

 

Thanks in advance,
Andrew

I would absolutely love to give this a test out. I'm a serious Alfred evangelist.

Since I now own an iPhone, I can test it. I'm already using Alfred Remote and know it and Alfred fairly well.

Awesome - just updated the main app on the beta channel with the promise of new remote compatibility

I think I qualify? Mail sent. (Image is a custom remote that works with IINA, VLC and other media players where you change *their* key bindings).

 

Mail sent.

I use Alfred every day, and also have a need recently to start leveraging the iPhone app for more flexibility

Not sure if you still need Alfred Remote Testers but I use Alfred Remote everyday for years and I meet all the requirements.
