WordPress for iOS version 8.1 beta will be available shortly for testing on TestFlight. Not part of the beta program yet? Please sign up for our TestFlight program to request to join as a beta tester.
What to Test:
Entirely New Login Flows
We’ve totally revamped the login flows to better match what our users expect. A ton of research has gone into this and we would really love for you to spend some time testing the login flows.
Some important flows to test are:
- Signing in to a self-hosted site by entering their site address
- Signing in to WordPress.com via magic links
- Signing in to WordPress.com via password
- Signing in to WordPress.com via password and 2FA
- Signing in to WordPress.com by entering their site address
- Test that they can log in via 1Password credentials.
- Test that they can log in via safari stored passwords.
Several Bug Fixes & Improvements
There were a lot of other improvements made in this release that aren’t being called out in this post. You can view the entire list here.
