How do I test changes in the editable copy?

Depending on the initial screen, there are 3 ways to test the editable copy of the app: the classic, phone number registration, web view registration. However, for the white-label options and specific theme projects, rebuilding is needed for testing.

Most changes in the editable copy of the app are provisioned with the settings, not part of the build. Therefore, you need to provision the editable settings to test if your changes are reflected. Note that this does not apply to the white-label options or the white-label specific theme options.

Important

The white-label options or the white-label specific theme do not use the instructions in the following sections.

Testing the changes to white label options and the white label-specific theme requires rebuilding the app and installing the new build for testing.

There are 3 methods to test the editable copy of the app, depending on the initial screen used.

Classic

The initial screen has a username and a password fields, and a QR code scanning option.
