Features
Everything you need for live updates
A complete OTA platform for Capacitor teams of any size.
Instant delivery
Updates land on devices in seconds — no store review. Force-immediate releases apply on the very next check.
Delta updates
Devices download only the files that changed between releases. Asset-heavy apps update in kilobytes, not megabytes.
Safe rollouts
Broken updates roll back automatically, and the CLI catches native-compatibility mistakes before a release ever ships.
Channel-based releases
Release to production, beta, or custom channels — switchable at runtime. Roll back any channel instantly.
Custom update experience
Silent and automatic out of the box — or hook into update events to ask before downloading and prompt to restart.
Secure by default
Signed manifests, SHA-256 verification, HTTPS everywhere — and optional end-to-end encryption for your code.
App Store compliant
OTA updates for web layers only — fully compliant with Apple and Google guidelines for Capacitor apps.
MCP & Agent Skills
Ask Claude Code or Codex to ship an update. It checks compatibility, uploads, and stops for your approval before anything reaches a device.
Open source
Fully open-source core. Self-host on your own infrastructure or use our managed service.
