Accordance and Major Upgrade Betas of macOS/iOS/iPadOS

Occasionally, we'll receive a tech support email from a customer running a beta of a forthcoming major upgrade of macOS/iOS/iPadOS reporting issues with Accordance.

Please note that we will not officially support Accordance on future major upgrades of macOS/iOS/iPadOS while those versions of macOS/iOS/iPadOS are in beta. We will wait until around the time each major upgrade of macOS/iOS/iPadOS is officially released to the public, as Apple can make major changes between each beta release of macOS/iOS/iPadOS that can affect various apps (including Accordance). This is generally how most macOS/iOS/iPadOS app developers support their apps, and Accordance is generally quick at supporting future major upgrades of macOS/iOS/iPadOS around the time such upgrades are officially released to the public.

However, some Accordance users wish to test out Accordance versions on betas of future upgrades to macOS/iOS/iPadOS solely for the purposes of providing feedback to us on how well Accordance is running on the forthcoming versions of macOS/iOS/iPadOS, as well as highlighting any potential issues with such future versions we may wish to be aware of.

For the customers who are interested in participating in such testing activities, you're welcome to do it and provide us feedback on our community. We'll read your feedback and keep it in mind in case Apple makes a major change in a future release of macOS/iOS/iPadOS we wish to be aware of. You're also welcome to test our latest Accordance betas on betas of future releases of macOS/iOS/iPadOS when providing us feedback. We are unable to provide technical support for Accordance running on beta releases of macOS/iOS/iPadOS, as well as any feedback or bug reports that come in on beta releases of macOS/iOS/iPadOS will be reviewed separately from bug reports on officially-supported, current-released versions of macOS/iOS/iPadOS. However, such feedback is still useful for us for those who are actively beta testing future major upgrades to macOS/iOS/iPadOS.

We do not recommend that you install a beta of macOS/iOS/iPadOS on your mission-critical production machines that you use for everyday work, as such beta versions can cause issues with Accordance until Apple is closer to releasing the major upgrade of macOS/iOS/iPadOS to the public. We always recommend that you reserve your mission-critical production machines that you use for every day work for an officially-supported, current-released version of macOS/iOS/iPadOS.
