Find My iPhone App Update is Preventing Non-Developers From Signing In

Posted August 22, 2013 at 6:14pm by
Apple has released an update to the Find My iPhone app which is reportedly preventing non-developers from signing in to use the app, according to 9to5Mac.

The Find my iPhone iOS app has been updated with a new iOS 7-style icon while the rest of the UI remains the same. This icon is the same as the one found on the updated beta.icloud.com website: However, many are noting that you cannot log in to the new Find my iPhone app without having a developer account.


If you haven't already installed the update, we'd suggest holding off until the issue is resolved.

I have no developer account but updating to the latest version had no negative effect. I can still login and the app works fine.

I guess this shows that only the most minimal testing is being done before these apps are released. If they had at least tried it on some non-developer phones, as common sense would dictate, they would have seen this problem.

I think you have to login to beta.icloud.com before it will work. I don't have a developer account, but used the iCloud site.
