I’m watching some disappointing confusion over the Shuggah situation.

To be clear: The company (Alty) that released Shuggah is not associated with the developers of the code Shuggah is built from (xdrip4ios/xdripswift). Alty does not contribute to xdrip4ios. Alty links to xdrip4ios resources for support. Alty provides zero support for Shuggah.

I know that last part is true because every time I’ve reached out to them, they told me to go to the xdrip4ios facebook group.

The xdrip4ios facebook group has a clear notice that they no longer provide support for Shuggah due to their app now, officially, being a fork.

Let me repeat this: Shuggah is a fork of xdrip4ios. Shuggah is not xdrip4ios. Shuggah contributes nothing back to xdrip4ios.

So when looking at whether xdrip4ios can be built for free or if the TestFlight is free, know that xdrip4ios will never charge for their software.

Honestly, I think xdrip4ios has a case to have Apple take down Shuggah from the app store. But the xdrip4ios devs seem pretty uninterested in any of the app store stuff. Which is why they don’t put in the work to release to the app store and allowed someone else to do it, leading to this situation.

Anyway, I have a private TestFlight of xdrip4ios now.
