Apple's TestFlight App Updated With Expanded 150 MB Cellular Data Download Limit

TestFlight, which is designed to allow developers to provide testers with beta versions of apps ahead of their release, was today updated to version 2.0.1, introducing a handful of new features.

The update brings support for downloading apps that are up to 150 MB in size over a cellular data connection. The previous TestFlight beta app limit was 100 MB, with this updated limit bringing TestFlight apps in line with other iOS apps.

Apple officially increased the App Store cellular over-the-air download limit to 150 MB in September of 2017, but the new increased limit apparently did not apply to beta apps. With the new limit, testers will be able to download TestFlight apps up to 150 MB without needing a WiFi connection.

Today's TestFlight update also introduces support for Smart Invert Colors, an accessibility option, and it includes a revised 3D Touch peek view that offers up "What to Test" information. Apple says the update also includes small bug fixes and UI improvements.

TestFlight can be downloaded from the App Store for free. [Direct Link]

Just seen the app in smart invert. The App layout is totally Inverted without affecting the profile photo and icon of app etc.. Its awesome on iPhone X like the black is 100% (all pixels are turned off)... maybe 11.3 has dark mode. also i think there might be multi user for tvOS and iOS cuz there seems to be multiuser option in HomePod... maybe it might be in iOS12 im not sure but yeah i think in long run it seems possible...

That's how smart invert has already been working since the beginning of iOS 11. Doesn't seem like there's anything new in particular as far as dark mode goes in iOS 11 or anything like that.
