Support # Using PrompTugal 0.4.106 Help for testers of the iPhone and iPad beta. The app needs iOS or iPadOS 18.0 or later. ## Get the beta PrompTugal is a native app for both iPhone and iPad. Today there are two ways to install the beta: build it from Xcode (see [build from source](#source)), or accept a TestFlight invitation from the team. There is no public TestFlight link yet; when there is one, it will be posted here. The App Store comes later. 1. Install [TestFlight](https://apps.apple.com/app/testflight/id899247664) from the App Store. 2. Open the invitation email on your iPhone or iPad and tap **View in TestFlight**. 3. Tap **Install**. Updates arrive in TestFlight as new builds are approved. Installing a new build over an older one keeps your saved sessions and your edited website list. ## Edit the website shortcuts On iPad the sidebar sits beside the page, and the sidebar button hides or shows it. On iPhone, or in a narrow window, the same button opens the list in a sheet. 1. Open PrompTugal once so it copies its default list into Files. 2. In the Files app, open **On My iPhone** (or **On My iPad**) → **PrompTugal** → `Websites.json`. 3. Edit or replace the file, then quit and reopen PrompTugal. The first entry opens at launch and the order of the list is the order of the sidebar. Each entry needs a unique `id`, a `name`, an HTTPS `url`, an SF Symbols `icon` and a `color` (red, orange, green, teal, blue, indigo or purple). For example: ``` { "id": "my-site", "name": "example.com", "url": "https://example.com/", "icon": "globe", "color": "green" } ``` If the file cannot be read, the app shows the default list with a notice. Delete the file and reopen the app to get the defaults back. ## Read offline Tap the book icon in the bottom bar to open the offline reader. Open it once while you are online so it can fill its cache. After that, Now, Agenda, Saved and News work without a connection. Full articles and the complete web agenda still need a connection. If a refresh fails, the cached content stays on screen with the time of the last good sync. ## Questions **Why are agenda times not in my time zone?** Web Summit runs in Lisbon, so the app shows every session in Lisbon time. A session that ends after midnight ends on the next day. **A link opened in Safari instead of the app. Is that right?** Yes. Pages on the same website stay in the app. Links to other sites, such as an article’s original source, open in Safari. **A payment link on a website does nothing in the app. Why?** The app does not open payment pages inside its web views: Stripe, PayPal and other hosted checkouts, and the reading-meter top-up page on PrompTugal.news. App Store rules require it. **When does the app ask to send notifications?** Only after you act: the first time you pick a talk, or when you turn reminders on in Settings → Reminders. A page inside the app can suggest reminders, but the app then shows its own question first, and the system prompt follows only if you tap it. **How do I add the widget or ask Siri what is next?** Touch and hold the Home Screen, tap **+** and choose PrompTugal to add the Now and Next widget. For Siri, say “What’s next in PrompTugal”; the same answer is in the Shortcuts app. Both show the agenda from the last time the app was open, so open the app once to fill them. They use no network. **Is there a team version?** The PrompTugal team has its own app for its people and agents. It is a separate app, not in the App Store, and not part of this one. [The three apps](apps.md). **Is the app affiliated with Web Summit?** No. PrompTugal.news is an independent newsroom. [About this coverage](https://promptugal.news/about/participant.html). **Where do I report a problem?** Use **Send Beta Feedback** in TestFlight, or take a screenshot while the app is open. Both reach the team with your build number. You can also [contact us](#contact). ## Contact PrompTugal is made by the PrompTugal team.

For a device, pick your team under **Signing & Capabilities** and change the bundle identifier `news.promptugal.reader` if needed.
