We're ready for the first version! Everyone who's on the list above and who sent me their email address should shortly receive an email with the next steps. It will be from something to the effect of "MultiPie Ltd (via Crashlytics)", with the subject "You've been invited to test Calibre Companion".

There are just a few steps once you get that email:
1) Open the email on your iPhone (or other Apple device) and tap the "Let me in" button. Follow the instructions on the website, which will include installing a certificate from Crashlytics.

2) That gives me the serial number for your device, which I need for some set up with Apple. (I need to tell them it's OK for your device to download the app even though it's not on the Appstore yet.)

3) Sometime on Friday, hopefully once most people have followed step 1, I will send out another email via Crashlytics which will let you actually download and install the app.

That last point is important: until I send the second email, you won't be able to download the app yet. That's completely normal.

The reverse is also true - if you don't follow step 1 before I send the email with the download link, you won't be able to download the app even after doing step 1. That's because your device(s) won't have been on the list I first sent to Apple. As I'm sure some people won't manage to sign up in time, I'll send other emails next week to make sure everyone gets a chance.
