Devices

Devices represent app installations that receive live updates. You can view a list of devices that have installed your app and that at least once connected to the Capawesome Cloud.

Manage Devices

You can manage devices associated with your app using the Capawesome CLI or the Capawesome Cloud Console.

Create a device

Devices are created automatically when a user checks for a live update for the first time by calling the fetchLatestBundle(...) or sync() method from the Live Update plugin.

Delete a device

A device can be deleted at any time.

To delete a device using the Capawesome CLI, use the apps:devices:delete command:

npx @capawesome/cli apps:devices:delete

You will be prompted to select the app you want to delete the device for and to provide the ID of the device. The CLI will then delete the device from the Capawesome Cloud.

To delete a device using the Capawesome Cloud Console, navigate to the app you want to delete the device for, and click on the Devices menu item under the "Live Updates" section in the sidebar. Next, select the device you want to delete. In the menu, click on the "Delete" button to delete the device.

Delete Device

Please note that deleting a device will not lower your Monthly Active Users (MAU) count as this is based on unique devices that have connected within the current billing period.
