EAS Workflows: Mobile CI/CD

Mobile CI/CD built for React Native

Builds, submissions, repacks, and OTA updates in one pipeline. Add it to your existing CI, or run everything here.

3M+ developers. 50K+ GitHub stars. Trusted in Production By:

Push to main. Get a TestFlight link.

Real numbers from the EAS Build infrastructure, not marketing estimates.

10–20 min iOS builds. No Mac.

iOS builds run on M4 Pro hardware in the cloud. No Mac required. No build machine to maintain. Most builds complete in 10–20 minutes, faster than generic the CI/CD tools.

40–60% of pushes skip the full build.

Fingerprint detection identifies when only JavaScript changed and skips the full native build, using a repack (~2 min) or OTA update instead. 40–60% of your pushes never wait for a full build.

1 token. All signing. Zero manual steps.

One EXPO_TOKEN replaces 10+ signing secrets across your CI environment. Provisioning profiles, certificates, and Android keystores are managed automatically. No manual rotation, ever.

DevOps Tax

The real cost of CI

The invoice is just the beginning. The real cost is invisible. Operational overhead, productivity loss, and deployment lag have an impact. Expo can reduce these DevOps costs by 80%, allowing engineers to focus on building features rather than managing infrastructure.

Expo and GitHub Actions

Expo Workflows serve as a high-performance mobile extension for GitHub Actions. While GitHub Actions is the standard CI for linting and tests, Expo eliminates the "Engineering Tax" of manual DevOps by automating iOS/Android build setups and code signing.

Expo and GitHub Actions

What keeps breaking your React Native CI.

Most React Native CI setups are web CI with Fastlane bolted on. The result: pipelines that break silently after every Xcode release.

Certificate expiration

Apple rotates distribution certificates annually. Every rotation requires manual Keychain updates, re-export, and CI secret rotation, and usually breaks production builds at the worst moment.

Xcode version drift

The macOS runner on Bitrise or GitHub Actions updated Xcode. Your Fastlane config didn't. Build fails. You spend hours updating derived data paths and xcodebuild flags instead of shipping.

"Works on my machine"

Builds pass locally but fail in CI because the runner has a different Node, Ruby, or CocoaPods version. Reproducing CI failures locally takes most of the day.

Environment sprawl

Dev, staging, and production builds need different bundle IDs, API endpoints, and signing identities. Managing separate Fastlane lanes and CI environment variables per environment doesn't scale.

Your next build is one push away.
