Android utilizes an operating system that is open and, therefore, capable of handling the beta. Apple is completely closed. On an iOS device there would be no way to do the beta the way that CG is doing it.
@Sirlagzalott
Actually Apple has much better tools for performing betas.
https://developer.apple.com/testflight/
Apple isn’t closed - it is simply more secure.
Have you ever used test flight? I have and it is not as easy as they way the devs are doing this beta. To do external testing in testflight you would need every person who wants to test the app's email and then manually enter it into their platform (iTunes connect). This is not the same nor is it in any way easy so quit complaining.
Yeah, Testflight is a tool for a beta testing an app, but this honestly shouldn't need such a tool. CG could release a separate app in the App Store just for this or other beta tests if they chose. All that said, for a limited beta of what is mostly just new server-side functionality, it makes sense to choose one platform to limit it to, if only to save time. And I'm guessing Android accounts for far more of their user base than iOS.
