I've created and app, and published it. The Gallery App Manager says my app is available via a private link. I'd like to install the app using the private link to see how it works. However, when I click the link I get 'Directing you to Gallery in Fitbit mobile application' message and nothing happens. I went to my mobile app and looked thru the available apps buy my does not show up. How can I install my app using the link? ( I don't want to use Developer Mode to Sideload the app.

 

thanks

I followed the instructions in the article you mentioned. The app was published and is available via a private link. However, when I click the private link, I get the message "Directing you to Gallery in Fitbit mobile application". I looked on my mobile device but couldn't find anything with "Gallery" or any way to install the app.

I figured it out, it was my mistake. I was clicking on the private link from my computer. I sent the private link to my mobile device and clicked it from there. The app installed correctly.

 

thanks
