Looking for macOS or iOS users who want to test the WikiTree Browser Extension

Question

Hi WikiTreers!

I'd like to get a few more testers for the Safari version of the WikiTree Browser Extension before I submit it to the Apple App Store.

If you are interested, let me know!

I’m willing to try it, :-)

Answer 1

Hi Jamie, I have an iMac, but I use Brave as my browser.  Would that help? Kitty

You should be able to install the Chrome version on Brave (that's what I normally use).

What does this browser extension do?  Is it like WikiTree X?

Answer 6

I have iOS devices and an intel Mac. Will the Mac extension work?

Comments

It works for me on an Intel chip. I believe the restriction on the Apple chip is for the TestFlight app.

---

Right, TestFlight will only work on Apple chips, but you can install on an Intel chip manually using the instructions on https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:WikiTree_Browser_Extension_Testers_Team

Answer 7

I can test if you still need more volunteers.

I regularly use a Mac with Safari and Firefox, and iPhone with Safari, for WikiTree work / editing.

I am also very familiar with WBE (currently using it on Mac and Windows PC's, both with Firefox)

Comments

Ah, I see an Apple chip is required on the Mac - mine's an Intel.

I can still do iOS testing on iPhone though...

I'm using a mac. I usually stick to chrome, and I have the WikiTree Browser Extension installed there, but if you need help testing in Safari I can give it a go.
