Apple faces a surge of vibe‑coded apps, with developers submitting over a thousand titles every hour, according to WWDC data. The company’s recent tightening of review standards is a start, but it falls short of curbing the flood that threatens the App Store’s quality.

The pandemic‑era platform Airport once let indie developers showcase non‑App Store builds via TestFlight, giving them wider reach than friends or social media. TestFlight’s 10,000‑tester cap and lack of discovery tools keep many creators in limbo. A revamped TestFlight “Discover” tab could restore that missing layer.

If Apple expands the tester limit and streamlines sharing, it could tame the influx of small projects while preserving the Store’s standards. The move would let developers publish quickly without sacrificing oversight, keeping the ecosystem vibrant and reliable.
