Long app store queues, slow review cycles, and fragile self-hosted setups have held back mobile teams for too long. CodePush for Bitrise changes that. React Native teams can now deliver updates directly to users in minutes.

‍San Francisco, US — November 12, 2025 — Bitrise, the leading DevOps platform for mobile, today released Bitrise Mobile Insights 2025, a comprehensive benchmarking report based on aggregated, anonymized data across 10M+ Bitrise builds over 3.5 years across its global customer base (January 2022–June 2025). “Innovation is accelerating, user expectations are rising, and engineering teams face constant pressure to deliver,” said Barnabás Birmacher, CEO of Bitrise.

With Xcode 26, Apple has finally introduced Xcode Compilation Caching: a major leap forward for iOS developers, who no longer have to wait around for slow builds while their CI pipelines recompile code that hasn’t changed. At Bitrise, our Build Cache product already supports Bazel and Gradle, so the logical next step was to introduce support for compilation caching in Xcode. In this blog post, we’re lifting the hood on how we built this new feature.

If you’ve searched for a new home in the UK, or had a sneak peek at what your neighbour’s place sold for, there’s a high chance you’ve landed on Rightmove. In 2024 alone, its website and app combined were visited a staggering 2.3 billion times, making it the UK’s fourth most visited platform, just behind the BBC and the UK Government. Since launching in 2000, Rightmove has positioned itself as the go-to place for buying, selling or renting a property in the UK.

‍Bitrise, the leading mobile DevOps platform, took home two prestigious honors at the National DevOps Awards 2025, winning both Best DevOps Tool/Product of the Year and the top award of the night, Overall DevOps Winner. The judges recognised Bitrise for redefining developer experience through its mobile-first approach and for delivering measurable impact across speed, reliability, and developer productivity.

At Bitrise, our goal is to help developers speed up their builds and automate tedious processes, from first code commit all the way to production release. To advance this mission, we began exploring how AI can improve developer workflows. Over recent months, I joined a small, fast-moving tiger team focused on cutting through hype to identify valuable AI capabilities. Our goal: to design, develop, and maintain production-grade AI features that truly help developers.

Let's talk about everyone's favorite part of mobile development: watching your tests fail just before you head home on a Friday.

Spend less time waiting and more time doing the work you love! One of the defining moments of my software career was learning the motto “if it hurts, do it more.” What the heck? This concept feels totally counterintuitive. But give it a moment’s thought, and you soon realize that as developers we are instructed to lean into the bad parts of our process so that we fix them and make them stop hurting.

As a developer, when you think about CI/CD, you probably focus on build times, test results, and deployment pipelines. The infrastructure powering those builds? It's invisible (unless something goes wrong!). At Bitrise, we've spent 10 years refining infrastructure decisions that most developers never see. In this post, we are pulling back the curtain on the infrastructure choices we've made and why they matter for reliability, consistency, and performance.

Long iOS build times are one of the biggest productivity drains for mobile teams. Developers lose hours waiting for builds to finish while CI pipelines burn resources recompiling code that hasn’t changed. With Xcode 26, Apple introduced Compilation Caching, a major leap forward that reuses compiled outputs instead of rebuilding them from scratch.
