Common App Store for Android and iOS both privately accessible

I want to upload my app which is in beta. It is working for both Android and iOS. Initially I want to distribute it privately only to limited user. I know about Google Play Private Channel but that is only for Android. I want for both. Is there any store for both which is world wide accessible. And I dont want to provide UUID for each Apple user. If not then what other options can be?

If you want one common solution for both iOS and Android, then

1) Appaloosa

2) Apphance

3) TheBetaFamily

4) HockeyApp

5) Bugsense

6) AppBlade

7) Knappsack

8) Testflight

Most of them are paid, but some of them has free trial period.

I am a big fan of Testflight as there service is brilliant and it is free. Unfortunately Testflight only support iOS and there is no chance of that changing since Apple acquired Testflight. If you decided to end up in an iOS only option, then Testflight is the service for you.

You can only distribute iOS apps to unmodified iOS devices if you have registered that device's UDID with Apple in your developer account. This applies to both final store distribution and also any private beta testing. There is no other way.

Thus there is no world accessible solution that meets your wants for native iOS apps.

But you can do HTML5 web apps (clip-able web sites that can run in Safari) that are world accessible without any app approvals.

Refer @Krishnabhadra's answer for tools for private beta deployment. For final distribution read this answer:

ios only allows jailbroken phones to install non-app-store apps. So there is no way to put both android and ios apps in the same store/distribution medium as you ask.

ios apps can only be distributed without the app store to a limited audience for testing etc.

You can distribute android apps via your own website or alternate app stores though.

You can use TestFlight available here: https://testflightapp.com/

TestFlight can provide over the air download support, feedback, reports etc and is very useful for iOS beta testing
