OTA Updates

Over-the-air updates with EAS.

We use EAS Update for over-the-air (OTA) updates so we can ship small fixes and UI changes without waiting on app store review.

When to use OTA

  • Bug fixes and small UI improvements
  • Content updates and feature flags
  • Non-breaking changes that do not require new native code

When not to use OTA

  • Native module changes or SDK upgrades
  • New permissions or entitlement changes
  • Anything that requires a new binary

Operational notes

  • Keep updates scoped and reversible
  • Roll out gradually when possible
  • Align with app store policies for OTA usage
