Understand how ExpoDeploy automates the deployment process, from build completion to store submission. Configure once, deploy automatically on every release.
Automated iOS app distribution
When an iOS build completes successfully, ExpoDeploy automatically uploads the IPA file to App Store Connect using your configured API credentials. The build appears in TestFlight immediately and can be submitted for App Store review. You need an App Store Connect API key with Admin access configured during project setup.
Automated Android app distribution
Completed Android builds (AAB format) are automatically uploaded to Google Play Console using your Service Account credentials. Builds are uploaded to the internal testing track by default, and you can promote them to production after testing. Requires a Google Cloud Service Account JSON file with Release Manager permissions.
