How DeployYourApp Compares
The features that set us apart.
Signing Keys Stay With You
DeployYourApp generates your RSA-4096 signing key pair on your own machine and uploads only the public half. The private key never reaches us, so a compromise of our storage or CDN still cannot produce a bundle your app will accept.
Electron Desktop Support
Many OTA platforms only support mobile. DeployYourApp supports Electron apps for Windows, macOS, and Linux from the same dashboard and CLI you use for mobile.
Corporate App Distribution
Distribute internal enterprise apps to employee devices without going through public app stores. Enforce mandatory updates, manage devices, and keep an audit trail.
Signed, Inspectable Bundles
Every bundle is signed with RSA-4096 and verified on-device before it is applied — verification is mandatory, with no setting that lets an unsigned bundle through. Bundles are not encrypted, deliberately: a plain, signed ZIP is one an app store reviewer can download and read in full, and each one also carries a per-file SHA-256 manifest checked as it is extracted.
Comprehensive Audit Logging
Included on every plan, not held back for Enterprise. Every deployment, configuration change, and team action is recorded with timestamps, user info, and IP addresses.
Ready to Switch?
Migration is simple. Install our plugin, run a deploy command, and your users start receiving updates through DeployYourApp on their next app launch.
