App automation done right.

Visit fastlane

fastlane is an open source platform that automates the deployment and release workflows for Android and iOS mobile applications. It addresses the repetitive and error-prone manual tasks involved in preparing and distributing app builds, such as generating localized screenshots, managing code signing, and uploading to app stores or beta testing services.

The platform offers several core capabilities: automated screenshot generation for multiple languages and devices, beta distribution to over 15 services including TestFlight and Google Play, and streamlined app store deployment with metadata management. It also provides automatic code signing for iOS through encrypted git repositories. fastlane integrates with continuous integration services and can be extended via community-built actions and plugins. Users define custom workflows called "lanes" using a simple configuration syntax.

fastlane is designed for mobile developers and teams working on iOS and Android apps. As an open source project, it is free to use and modify. The platform is maintained by the Mobile Native Foundation and relies on community contributions. No information about paid editions, trial periods, or seat-based pricing is provided on the website.
