Introduction

Bring your mobile apps written in any language to Visual Studio App Center's cloud and lifecycle services and you'll get faster release cycles, higher-quality apps and the time and data to focus on what users want.

Services:

Continuous everything: Automate your entire mobile app livecycle in a few easy steps.

Sign in and connect your apps to Visual Studio App Center's continuous integration, automated testing, distribution, and feedback capabilities. Our open platform and available APIs make it easy to mix and match the services you want to augment your existing workflow.

Build five-star Apps: Deliver high quality apps and keep users coming back for more

Embed automated UI tests into your build and distribute process, so your app is tested on hundreds of devices before any users see it. Crash reporting and rich analytics bring immediate diagnostics and insights from the experiences of production users.

Cloud Powered: Visula Studio App Center makes it easy for developers to do everything an app needs to do

Successful mobile apps are powered by an enterprise-grade cloud backend that brings scalability, security, data and turnkey mobile features such as authentication and offline sync to apps. Connect apps to data anywhere in the cloud or on-premises.

Support

Mobile Platforms: Objective-C, Swift, Java, Xamarin, React Native Lifecycle Features: Build, Test, Crash, Beta Distribution, Analytics Cloud Features: Authentication, Easy Tables, Offline Sync

We're just getting started and have big plans for helping you deliver better mobile apps faster, with support for Cordova and UWP apps and more lifecycle and mobile cloud services in the near future.
