Switch environments

Every app can connect to any environment, so you can move between production, staging, and demo without installing a separate app. After download from TestFlight, the Apple App Store, or Google Play, each app starts on production.

To switch, you enter a password for the target environment. The passwords are the same on iOS and Android:

  • Production: clear the text field
  • Staging: Rufus
  • Demo: Brutus

Switching environments is intended for testing. In a different environment you sign in against different data, so log out first and log back in after switching.

On iOS

  1. Log out of the app.
  2. Open iOS Settings, search for the app name, and open its settings.
  3. In the Environment field, enter the password for the environment you want, or clear the field for production.
  4. Go back one screen to apply the change.
  5. Close and restart the app.
  6. Log back in to the new environment.

To confirm the environment, open the main menu. A small indicator at the bottom shows S for staging or D for demo. For production, no indicator is shown.

On Android

  1. Log out of the app and go to the phone-number login screen.
  2. Tap the shuttle icon with four short taps and one long tap: short, short, short, short, long. A dialog opens.
  3. Enter the password for the environment you want, or clear the field for production, then press OK.
  4. The app restarts in the new environment.

To confirm the environment, check the small text at the bottom of the phone-number login screen. It shows [staging] or [demo]. If neither is shown, you are on production.
