Adds links to the native app betas.

  • Landing page: a small "SplitPro for iPhone is in beta" section under the desktop showcase. "Join the iOS beta" opens TestFlight in a new tab, with a note that it needs Apple's TestFlight app. The "Do I need to install an app?" FAQ now says it runs in the browser and that a native app is in beta.
  • Balances page: a dismissible card chosen by user agent. iPhone/iPad users see the iOS beta, Android users see the two Android steps, and desktop users get one short line. The platform is detected after mount, so the server and client render the same thing. Dismissal is saved in localStorage.
  • Download App drawer: beta links now sit above the add-to-home-screen instructions.

The links are in src/components/Site/constants.ts. ANDROID_BETA_GROUP_URL is null until the Google Group exists, and while it's null every Android link is hidden. Setting it turns on the Android steps (join the group, then "Become a tester" on the Play opt-in page) on all three surfaces. It also changes the landing title and FAQ to mention Android.

Checks: tsc --noEmit passes. pnpm lint has 0 errors and no new warnings. pnpm build passes. The changed files pass Prettier, but prettier --check . still flags 20 files that were already unformatted on main.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added a dismissible beta information card that adapts to the detected device; dismissal is remembered when browser storage is available.
    • Added iOS beta instructions to the homepage and app download drawer, with Android enrollment instructions shown when available.
    • Added beta information to the balances page.
  • Updates
    • Updated app installation guidance to distinguish native app beta instructions from home-screen installation.
    • External links can now open in a new tab.

- Landing: small beta section (iOS TestFlight, Android two-step opt-in) and an updated install FAQ
- Balances: dismissible card picked by user agent after mount; dismissal kept in localStorage
- Download App drawer: beta links above the add-to-home-screen instructions
- Android stays hidden everywhere until ANDROID_BETA_GROUP_URL is set

Walkthrough

The change adds platform-aware iOS and optional Android beta information, including a dismissible card. It presents beta links on the homepage and in the download drawer, and renders the card on the balances page.

Changes: Native App Beta Information

Layer / File(s) Summary
Beta links and platform detection
src/components/Site/constants.ts, src/components/Site/blocks.tsx, src/components/AppBeta.tsx
The site constants define iOS and Android beta URLs, with the Android tester-group URL set to null. Link components accept an optional external-link prop. AppBeta detects the platform after mount and provides reusable beta enrollment links.
Platform-aware dismissible card
src/components/AppBeta.tsx
AppBetaCard reads and stores dismissal state when local storage is available. It renders platform-specific beta information, or links on desktop. Android information is omitted when the tester-group URL is null.
Beta information on site surfaces
src/pages/index.tsx, src/components/InstallApp.tsx, src/pages/balances.tsx
The homepage presents beta information and conditionally includes Android instructions. The download drawer separates native-app beta links from home-screen instructions. The balances page renders AppBetaCard.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Mergeable with minor follow-up: some iOS visitors may miss the TestFlight prerequisite, and enabling Android will redisplay an already-dismissed iOS card.

Show the TestFlight requirement in the fallback.

An iOS WebView can supply a user agent that does not identify iOS. In that case, the desktop message links to the beta but omits the TestFlight app requirement. Include that requirement in the fallback.

Keep the iOS dismissal key stable.

When the Android group URL is enabled, the iOS card reads a new dismissal key even though its content is unchanged. Users who dismissed it will see it again. Keep the existing iOS key across that configuration change.
