We’re not allowed to test Filtr, but at least we can test the UI changes for the “26” OSes… so I started the beta without it 🤷‍♀️

The iOS version has already been approved, and I imagine the macOS version will follow soon.

@mipstian LOL. I was just about to email back saying I couldn’t see the Filtr feature in the TestFlight version.
@Craktok if it was there the beta would’ve been rejected 😭
@mipstian well the Apple event is tomorrow and iOS 26 will probably be released a week on Friday. So not long to wait 🤞🏾🤞🏾

@Craktok I don’t think they’ll accept it even after that tbh, we’re talking 26.1 if ever 😬

This is just speculation of course

@mipstian Will you launch Filtr on day one with iOS 26 or do you plan to do more internal testing before that? It’s unfortunate they didn’t allow you able to release the beta with it.
@gracjan even if they let me, idk tbh. Guess I’ll cross that bridge then. I don’t think they’ll let me tho so I’m not worrying too much about this decision 😓
@mipstian Are you suspecting there are some weird requirements you don’t meet or they don’t support your use case for the API? Is that the worry? I hope that’s not the case.

@gracjan the backend auto-rejects any apps with URL filter extensions in them. No humans or App Store rules are involved, I can’t even get that far. Not just my apps either, any.

My guess is they either want to push the feature forward to 26.1, or they never intended for it to be used by App Store apps in the first place. But I have no insider info so 🤷‍♀️

@mipstian I wonder if anyone else has encountered this issue or you’re the only one that already tried to release this type of app. 🤔
@gracjan I don’t know of anyone else, but then again I don’t usually pay attention to what other apps in this space do
@mipstian I get this error when I click on the testflight link in the email
@AnimeAndVisial hm, can you send me a feedback with your email so I can see what’s up?
@mipstian Alright I sent it
@AnimeAndVisial I added your email! Not sure why it wasn’t there, but i definitely didn’t revoke any 🤷‍♀️
@mipstian It’s working now thanks!
@mipstian thank you. I was surprised about the email.
@mipstian I am already a Wipr 2 test user but I doesn’t show in TestFlight:/
