I tried Testflight and didn't like that each user has to register himself without being able to download the beta app.

Once, I used HockeyApp to download a Beta app and it was absolutely straightforward. You should give it a try. The only problem is that it is not a free service.

Question though: Do I still have to add the tester phones to my dev profile in Apple's member site when using HockeyApp ?

yes the build still needs to be signed for each user

Ok, so pretty much the same as free TestFlight. Thanks for the advice though.

AFAIK, the only benefit I see from switching to Hockeyapp is that the tester doesn't have to register into Testflight in order to download the app. Now, I have to roll a beta test phase for our app and will try Hockeyapp. I'll leave my impressions here later.

Will check it out. Thanks
