macOS Ventura has prevented installing apps using TestFlight since the last beta version running, which is the fifth in early August. Apple hasn’t distributed new versions since, perhaps in a sign that the company is putting all of its efforts on the side of iOS 16 that should be released first in September along with the iPhone. Like iPadOS 16.1, macOS Ventura will be released later in the fall, allowing more time to fix bugs.

As a reminder, TestFlight is an Apple-run service that allows third-party app developers to offer beta versions to their users. First reserved for iOS devices, now available on Mac since last year with Monterey. But the app no longer works properly since macOS Ventura beta 5, like In particular John Voorhees Mac stories. It’s been over two weeks since he was able to install any beta this way.
According to a message from Apple sent by Developer Ivan PavlovThe company will know from the start, but it doesn’t offer any solution. We’ll likely have to wait for the next macOS Ventura beta, but we don’t know when it will arrive.
The advantage of the Mac in this regard is that TestFlight is not the only option, unlike the iPhone and iPad. Developers can distribute their beta versions in another way, which is impossible on iOS. However, it is the official way to do it and the easiest, especially for developers who use the Mac App Store exclusively to distribute their apps.
