Comments ​

iOS Android

A comment is a note on a build. Write down what you found while testing, with a screenshot, and every teammate who opens the same build sees it. Every role can comment, and there is nothing to turn on.

How to use ​

  1. In a QA Session, open the Comments tab under the info card. It is the tab that shows first.
  2. Write in the Leave a comment… box.
  3. To add an image, press Attach image and choose a file.
  4. Press Post comment.

Comments form one flat list with no threads, grouped under Today, Yesterday and earlier dates. Each shows its author and time, and clicking an attached image opens it in a new tab.

Press the link button next to a comment (Copy link to comment) to copy an address that goes straight to it, and a Link copied notice appears. The address ends in #comment-<number>. Whoever opens it is scrolled to that comment, which is highlighted for a moment.

Platform support ​

Comments belong to the build, not the device, so they work the same for iOS and Android builds.

Limits ​

  • Attached images must be PNG, JPG or WebP, up to 5 MB. Another format shows Only png, jpg, webp allowed, and a larger file shows Max 5MB.
  • The dashboard cannot edit or delete a comment. Deleting one takes the REST API, and only its author or an Admin can.
  • Copying a comment link works only when the dashboard is open over HTTPS (or localhost). Over HTTP the browser blocks the clipboard write and Could not copy link appears.

Setup (operator) ​

CI can leave the branch or commit as a comment while it uploads a build; see Upload from CI. The attachment limit can be changed on the relay with TAPFLOW_MAX_COMMENT_BYTES, but the dashboard still refuses files over 5 MB before uploading them.

Troubleshooting ​

  • Couldn't load comments. means the list could not be fetched. Reload the page.
  • Could not copy link appears. Check whether the dashboard address starts with http://, and ask your operator to set up HTTPS.
