Why/User Benefit/User Problem

It'd be ideal not to have to do a custom Lockwise build to test Sync changes against staging. If there were a flag/config pref/toggle somewhere that would let us either:

a) Point to staging only OR b) Set our own sync host (which would allow pointing to staging and might be more flexible for self-hosters?).

...then we could make changes to Sync with more confidence that we can test them against staging before rolling to prod.

What/Requirements

  • We’re able to point Lockwise iOS to staging based Sync server.

Acceptance Criteria (how do I know when I’m done?)

  • ^ single requirement above is possible without a custom build.

If there was settings page similar to Firefox and you tap the version number several times to reveal the additional settings, that would work for me. I've been looking to something like that with this app for Android/iOS for a while.

@st3fan: Is this truly resolved for iOS? I've seen some possibly related changes in the application-services repo, but I don't think these let me specify my own syncserver.
