EAS Submit

EAS Submit is a hosted service for uploading and submitting an app binary to the app stores.

EAS Submit is a hosted service for submitting your app binaries to the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store.

It makes submitting your apps simple and easy by creating and handling submission credentials and running the submission process. You can trigger a submission from a CLI command, after a build is finished, or from a CI/CD service. It's the fastest way to take Android and iOS builds and submit them to the app stores.

How does EAS Submit work?

EAS Submit delivers your app to the app stores' distribution pipelines (a chosen track on Google Play or TestFlight for iOS), following the default submission behavior for app stores. It queues up your app for distribution on the Play Store Console and App Store Connect, and then you can log into those sites to send your apps off to review, so then they can be distributed to your users.

Android (Google Play Store)

• Where it goes: EAS Submit uploads the build to Google Play Console.
• What happens then: The build is placed in the track you specify (internal, alpha, beta, or production).
• Does this mean production?
  • If you use internal, alpha, or beta, the app is only available to testers in that track.
  • If you explicitly choose production, then yes — once Google approves the release, it will be available to all users.

iOS (App Store Connect/TestFlight)

• Where it goes: EAS Submit uploads the build to App Store Connect.
• What happens then: The build becomes available in TestFlight.
• Does this mean production?: No — a TestFlight build is not automatically released to the Apple App Store.
• How production happens: You must log into Apple App Store Connect, choose the build, and submit it for App Review before it can be released to production.
