Run iOS builds on preconfigured Apple Silicon hardware. Signing, provisioning, and App Store submission handled — from any laptop you already own.
More than 1,000 teams build with Capawesome
Everything you need to build, sign, and publish iOS apps — managed in the cloud, so your local OS doesn't decide whether you can ship.
iOS builds run on Apple Silicon hardware in the cloud. No MacBook purchase, no remote Mac rental, no local Xcode install to babysit.
Xcode, signing tooling, and the iOS build environment managed for you. Upload your certificate, push your code, and ship.
From commit to TestFlight to the App Store in one pipeline. No manual IPA uploads, no Transporter, no Mac in the loop.
Apple Silicon hardware, the right Xcode, and signing tooling — all managed in the cloud. Nothing to install, nothing to update, no Mac at any step. Keep your laptop, editor, and git workflow.
Apple Silicon M4 Pro hardware — fast, consistent cloud builds
Windows, Linux, Chromebook, or WSL — any laptop you already own
Xcode managed for you — no installs, no version drift
Reproducible builds — every run starts from a clean environment
Certificates and provisioning profiles trip up teams who don't live in Xcode daily. Upload yours once and every build is signed automatically — built-in tools generate them when you don't.
Upload once, sign forever — every build signed automatically
Certificate and UDID helper tools — generate what you need in minutes
Encrypted credential vault — certs never appear in logs
Expiry tracking — warnings before signing breaks a release
Connect your repository once and every commit becomes a signed build, a TestFlight submission, or an App Store release — on your schedule. No manual IPAs, no Transporter, no Mac in the loop.
Automated builds on every push, tag, or schedule
Direct TestFlight and App Store submission — no manual upload
Betas, rollouts, releases — one pipeline covers all of them
Works with your existing CI — or runs entirely in Capawesome Cloud
One command uploads your project to our build runner and drops the signed IPA back into your local build folder. Same shape as a local build — runs the same on Windows, Linux, and macOS.
The two other ways teams solve 'we need a Mac to ship iOS' — and how the cost, setup, and maintenance actually stack up.
From Windows-first product teams to Linux-native engineering shops — teams ship iOS on Capawesome Cloud without rearranging their hardware.
We had to use an Android and iOS SDK in our Capacitor app, for which no plugin existed. Capawesome was able to create a fully functional Capacitor plugin for us within a few days. The communication was excellent and the plugin works perfectly.
We switched from Capgo to Capawesome Cloud a few months ago and so far we haven't looked back. With Capawesome Cloud, we have significantly less downtime, updates are delivered faster, and support is literally the best we have ever experienced. The integration was straightforward, and the documentation is clear and concise. Big thanks to the Capawesome team for creating such an awesome platform!
Capawesome Cloud has become an essential part of our release workflow. We mainly use it for over-the-air updates, allowing us to fix bugs and release updates quickly without waiting for the app review process. The integration was incredibly easy — it took us less than a day and felt almost plug-and-play. The support is excellent as well; the team is always helpful, responsive, and quick to reply.
We tested and verified several solutions on the market to help us deliver OTA updates for our Apps quickly, securely and, most importantly, that were capable of scaling as we grew and demanded. Capawesome Cloud was our choice! The integration is super simple, we have automatic rollback and code signing to ensure the security of updates. The costs are transparent and honest, we are very happy with the platform and looking forward to integrating our future Apps!
Capawesome Cloud has helped us reduce our live update costs by more than 90% while offering more features than our previous provider. The integration took us less than a day and the support is top-notch. We now deliver daily live updates to more than 200,000 devices without any issues.
Capawesome's live updates have been a game changer for our mobile recipe app at King Arthur Baking. We can quickly deliver improvements without app store delays, saving time and resources while keeping the experience fresh for our baking community.
Our Capacitor app had several unique requirements for running operations in the background. The Capawesome team was able to quickly understand our needs and crafted a customized Capacitor plugin that exceeded our expectations.
We've been using Capawesome Cloud for CI/CD across our Capacitor apps and couldn't be happier. Migrating from Appflow was a breeze — we were up and running in no time, with way less friction than anticipated. The setup was straightforward and the workflow has been rock solid ever since. But what really sets Capawesome apart is the support. The team is incredibly responsive and genuinely helpful. It's great to get that level of personal attention from a SaaS tool. Highly recommend it to any Capacitor team looking to simplify their deployment pipeline.
We mainly use over-the-air (OTA) updates to deliver critical bug fixes and updates when waiting on the App Store review process is not an option. After dealing with too much down-time and latency from Capgo, we made the decision to switch to Capawesome Cloud and we couldn't be happier. Capawesome is more stable and the package delivery speeds are significantly faster, which makes a big difference at scale. Capawesome's team is extremely responsive and professional - thanks for supplying such a great product guys.
Moving from Ionic Appflow to Capawesome Cloud has been a fantastic experience. We're very pleased with the product and genuinely impressed with what the team has built. The builds are significantly faster than Ionic Appflow, which is a nice improvement. We especially appreciate how the build process is separated from deployment—it has made debugging much easier and streamlined our entire workflow. The support has also been great. We hope to see even more users make the switch!
Capawesome Cloud has been a game-changer for our team. We can now deploy updates to our Capacitor app without pushing to the app stores. This has saved us countless hours and allowed us to iterate faster. It's a must-have for any modern app development team.

Correct. Capawesome Cloud runs iOS builds on Apple Silicon M4 Pro hardware in the cloud and handles signing, provisioning, and submission for you. You can develop, commit, and ship iOS apps from Windows, Linux, Chromebook, or WSL — your local OS never touches the iOS build.
No. Xcode and the rest of the iOS build toolchain run entirely in the cloud, managed by Capawesome Cloud. We keep the Xcode version current, so you skip the install, the upgrades, and the version-drift surprises between your machine and your build agent.
Yes. Apple requires an active Apple Developer Program membership ($99/year) to distribute apps through TestFlight or the App Store — that's an Apple policy and applies regardless of how you build. Capawesome Cloud uses the certificates and provisioning profiles issued under your developer account to sign and submit your builds.
Our iOS Certificate Generator walks you through creating a Certificate Signing Request, distribution certificate, and provisioning profile without needing Xcode. For ad hoc tester devices, the iOS UDID Finder helps collect UDIDs from testers in minutes.
Capawesome Cloud builds iOS apps for Capacitor, Ionic, Cordova, and native iOS projects. Connect your repository, configure your signing credentials, and every commit produces a signed build. For teams working in other frameworks, talk to our team about supported configurations.
Most teams get their first signed build running the same afternoon. The setup: create an account, connect your git repository, upload your signing certificate and provisioning profile, and trigger a build. Expect 10–30 minutes from sign-up to a running build once your Apple Developer credentials are ready.
Yes. The Capawesome CLI is designed for non-interactive, agent-driven workflows — structured JSON output, non-interactive auth tokens, and official agent skills for Claude Code and Cursor. Your agent can trigger builds, monitor progress, and ship to TestFlight without a Mac (and without you in the loop). See Mobile CI/CD for AI agents.
Start a free trial and run your first cloud iOS build this afternoon — or see pricing to plan a build cadence that scales with your release schedule.
