Today is your last opportunity to apply for the beta testing program.

It was interesting how the form mentioned after the beta testing finishes you then have the option to pay for a subscription to continue using the product. Seems to suggest beta units might be sent out at no cost to the testers.

Just found out from another beta tester applicant that SwitchBot have already contacted their beta candidates.
