Mobile Builds
Mobile Builds tracks Xcode Cloud CI runs on Apple devices with build status, history, analytics, notifications, and workflow actions for iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Vision Pro.
Overview
Mobile Builds is an app for tracking Xcode Cloud CI runs from Apple devices. It is available on iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Vision Pro, and is designed to keep build status, history, analytics, and notifications available inside the user’s workflow.
The app supports reviewing past runs, starting new builds, re-running failed builds, and managing workflows. It connects directly to Apple’s APIs, uses iCloud Keychain for secure sync across devices, and offers a free download with optional Pro subscriptions for more advanced history and filtering features.
Features
Build actions from the app
Start a new build for a workflow or re-run a failed build directly from the app.
Workflow creation and editing
Create a new workflow or edit an existing one from Mobile Builds.
At-a-glance status on device
Use the latest-runs widget on iOS or the menu bar app on macOS to check recent activity quickly.
Siri, Shortcuts, and Spotlight support
Ask Siri to start or re-run a build, and use Mobile Builds actions inside Shortcuts; recent runs also appear in Spotlight.
Private-by-default architecture
The app talks directly to Apple’s APIs and says your credentials and build data do not touch the developer’s servers.
Use cases
Monitor CI on the go
Check the latest Xcode Cloud run status on iPhone, Mac, or Vision Pro while moving between tasks, instead of opening a browser or switching to another workflow.
Investigate build history
Review past runs by workflow, branch, or result to identify flakes and spot trends before they become harder to trace.
Trigger build actions quickly
Start a new build or rerun a failed build when you want to validate a fix without leaving the app.
Manage workflows from the device
Edit or create workflows from the app when your CI setup changes and you want to make the adjustment in place.
Surface CI in everyday workflows
Use the iOS widget, macOS menu bar app, Siri, Shortcuts, or Spotlight to check status and launch common actions from wherever you already work.
