Self-hostable · App Center alternative

Manage and distribute your builds

All your builds in one place. Distribute Android, iOS and Desktop apps to testers and users, or self-host the whole thing on your own infrastructure.

Works with Android iOS Desktop

How it works

From build to installed in three steps

Step 1

Upload a build

Run the CLI or drop the file from the dashboard. APK, AAB or IPA.

Step 2

Share a link

Every build gets a link and a QR code you can hand to your testers.

Step 3

Testers install

They open the link, install the app and they are done. No store review.

CLI

Ship builds from your terminal

Install the CLI once, then upload APK, AAB or IPA builds straight from your machine or CI pipeline. Every upload becomes a shareable build.

terminal
$ npm install -g distapp
$ distapp distribute \
    --file ./app-release.apk \
    --slug yedev/habit-tool \
    --api-key $DISTAPP_API_KEY

Distributing ./app-release.apk
Finished Distributing "./app-release.apk"
