Test an App Clip experience

With App Clips, you can take a small part of your app and make it discoverable and quick to launch at the moment it’s needed. If your app contains an App Clip, you can add up to three invocation URLs to launch different experiences. Testers running TestFlight for iOS, version 2.7 or later, and iOS 14 beta or later can test and provide feedback on all available App Clip experiences. Testing of other invocation methods is not currently supported. Learn more about testing your App Clip’s launch experience.
