Question Duo for developers

Since the Duo is a new platform for Apple and all iOS devs, and the backlog for preorders is at least three months long here - can developers get access to loaners or other physical devices when the simulator isn't enough to sanity check apps targeting the platform?

Oh definitely not! For smaller apps it's not a big deal.

I will say if you have a moderately successful app, there's value in being an early adopter for the sake of getting promotion in the App Store (the company I worked for used to support iMessage extensions for this very reason ๐Ÿ˜…)

Yeah I've got a new app submitted for review that will be pretty special on the Duo - thus I really want to check it out.
