TestFlight , but at the time of writing the article, the number of testers had reached the upper limit, so the beta version could not be downloaded. Also, the Android version has not been pre-released at the time of article creation.

Tom Warren, editor of the IT news site The Verge , shows how the Windows App for iOS actually operates on X.



At the time of article creation, a company account or school account is required to use Windows App, and it cannot be used with a personal account.

We anticipate that it may also become available.'
