FirebaseAppDistribution
The Firebase App Distribution in-app tester API, mirroring com.google.firebase.appdistribution.FirebaseAppDistribution from the Firebase Android SDK's API-only library (firebase-appdistribution-api): signs the tester in, checks for new pre-release builds, updates the app to them and collects the tester's feedback.
Android: every call does nothing, and every task fails with FirebaseAppDistributionException.Status.NOT_IMPLEMENTED, unless the app also depends on the full
com.google.firebase:firebase-appdistributionSDK. Add it to pre-release build variants only: its self-update code may break Google Play policy.iOS: backed by the iOS SDK (
FirebaseAppDistribution-Beta), which provides sign-in and the release check; updateApp and updateIfNewReleaseAvailable open the new release's download link, and iOS then asks the tester to install it. The iOS SDK has no in-app feedback, so the feedback members do nothing there and carry@UnsupportedOnApple. macOS and tvOS have no App Distribution SDK.JVM: behaves as Android does without the full SDK.

The new release available to the signed-in tester, or null if there is none; updateApp installs it. Fails with FirebaseAppDistributionException.Status.AUTHENTICATION_FAILURE when the tester is not signed in. On iOS too: there it does not show the sign-in alert that the iOS SDK's own checkForUpdate shows.

As showFeedbackNotification with a string resource ID, with the additionalFormText itself.
Shows a notification that, when tapped, takes a screenshot of the current activity and starts the feedback activity, see startFeedback. additionalFormText is a string resource ID; interruptionLevel is how much the notification interrupts the tester. On Android 13 and above it needs the POST_NOTIFICATIONS permission. Does nothing on iOS and the JVM.

Updates the app to the release that the last checkForNewRelease returned: an APK is downloaded and installed, an AAB is handed to the Play app. Fails with FirebaseAppDistributionException.Status.UPDATE_NOT_AVAILABLE when that check found no new release.

Updates the app to the newest release, if one is available. If the tester is not signed in, asks them to sign in first, then checks for a new release; the task succeeds when there is none. Otherwise, after the tester confirms, an APK is downloaded and installed, and an AAB is handed to the Play app.
