Two files
An installable file anybody can put on an Android phone from a link, and the bundle Google requires for the Play Store.
Android
Android apps
A real file, from one button, with nothing hidden about what the store still asks of you.
What you get and when
Five minutes, then eighty seconds
Measured on our own machine. The first build sets things up; later ones reuse the work.
Never during a change
A build waits while any change is in flight and starts the moment the last one ends, so it can never steal the speed of the loop you are using.
The queue survives a restart
It is a list in the database, not in memory. A deploy cannot lose your build and leave you watching a spinner.
Your signing key
Generated once, kept in your project beside your own settings, never in our database, and it leaves with you. Lose it and the only way back is publishing a different app — which is why it is yours.
Failures say one sentence
Build output is thousands of lines of file names. You get a sentence; the detail is kept for whoever can act on it.
What the Play Store needs from you: nothing
We submit your app to the Play Store under our own developer account. So the things people dread about it are simply not yours to do: no console to open, no one-off fee to Google, no identity verification, and no closed test with twelve volunteers running for a fortnight before you are allowed to go public.
What you do is press Build and tell us it is ready. We write the listing, answer Google’s data-safety questionnaire, deal with the reviewers, and come back to you in plain words if something needs changing. The release fee covers that work, it is charged once per release, and an app sent back for correction is not charged again.
Google refuses apps built for an older Android version than its current floor, and that floor rises every August. We keep up with it so an upload is not rejected for a reason you could not have known.
If you would rather own the store listing yourself, that is a fair thing to want and we will help you do it — say so and we will set it up in your name instead.

Request access Take the free founder test
