Codemagic gives default installations of jq like tools which help us to save time in installing it every time plus cache service for add more option in default tools. Pros The service of auto code signing and build triggers upon the commits with conditional triggers Cons IOs code signing and slack support. the codemagic have very poor documentation for code signing they should given more example and help in code signing process . like i use gaming laptop i dont have ios and now i need ios app ipa file not to upload on appstore but for me to check max size before deliver. i should not need developer account for this . i can do it with xcode and so i can do it with mac cli rather then doing changes every time i can automate it but no help for that while there is appcircle ci/cd which provide their code.

CTO Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Would recommend and actually have multiple times" July 6, 2021 5.0 Automation, automation, automation. Pros As a developer, I'm very lazy and had build pipelines for web and API configured and happily working but building and releasing the Flutter app was always a pain, thanks to the joys of XCode. Codemagic allowed me to avoid opening XCode at least 90% of the time... There are loads of clever features but the main thing is having a triggerable and consistent build pipeline for Flutter. Cons Really didn't have any issues with Codemagic. Would love it if it could check if the build number clashes with the latest deployed build number to the App Stores to avoid wasting time building, just to have Apple decline the upload, but that's more of a feature request than a con. Reason for choosing Codemagic Not capable of building Flutter (or too complicated to be worth while) Review Source Response from Nevercode August 3, 2021 We have calculated that automating your CI/CD pipeline will save you around 20% of dev time! MV Mahesh V. Developer Computer Software Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Worth a try for production apps" July 6, 2021 4.0 I wanted to automate CI/CD and it worked smoothly with Codemagic. Pros Ready-to-use templates are nice to start quickly. Cons It would nice to see more plugins for integration. Reason for choosing Codemagic cost & easy to use Review Source Rudrank R. Technical Writer Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "One of the best visual CI/CD service" August 24, 2021 5.0 Pros I'm an Apple platforms developer, and Codemagic, focusing on providing CI/CD service for mobile development, turned out to be the ideal choice. Configuring and setting up my projects were a breeze, thanks to the excellent documentation. I love the visual appeal of the service, and it fulfills all my needs, automates testing and deployment to the App Store in the quickest time possible. Cons I haven't come across any cons as of yet. Sometimes, it takes time to load the project to test, otherwise no issues. Review Source MV Mario V. IT Developer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "I love codemagic" June 29, 2021 5.0 This help is to make fast deploys and allow us to develop without care of compilation time Pros Is very simple to implement and have a amazing api to make the deploys Cons I want to share when a build failed with another non registered users Review Source JP João P. CEO Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Apps are build and published!" July 1, 2021 5.0 Pros \- easy to use - it works - easy to debug Cons \- first setup may be harsh. But once you finish all goes smooth Review Source SK Steven K. Owner Hospitality Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Good bang-for-the-buck for Ionic Capacitor Apps" August 17, 2021 5.0 End of the day, very pleased with Codemagic. While the setup effort is non-trivial for Capacitor, it is worth the effort and a far more cost-effective option vs. alternatives. Pros Codemagic was one of the few cloud-based CI/CD solutions that supported the Ionic Capacitor build flow for iOS & Android apps. Once setup & validated, it is extremely easy to use for day-to-day builds. It is also quite cost-effective for small-time developers - amazing amount of functionality at the free tier. Cons Setup for Capacitor is not easy. There are some helpful blogs, but it was still a significant challenge to get things up & running the first time. It would be very helpful to have a 'canned' Capacitor flow that worked out of the box to hit the ground running. Reason for choosing Codemagic Appflow is very easy to use (setup much easier than Codemagic) but is too expensive for small-time developers. Review Source GC Gabriel C. Software engineer Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Codemagic is awesome" June 30, 2021 5.0 Awesome experience. Pros Really easy to use and at a really good price. Cons I have no complaints about Codemagic, I like the way it is. Switched from [CircleCI](https://www.capterra.com/p/150380/CircleCI/) I tried Codemagic and fall in love with it 😍 Review Source GP Greg P. iOS Engineer Financial Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Codemagic as any other CI alternative" July 28, 2022 5.0 9/10 Pros Codemagic is easy to use. Documentation is well written and easy to understand. Integration with our existing infrastructure was smooth and quick. Cons Some minor issues, like when I connect new repository into codemagic it was not fetching codemagic.yaml and I needed to refresh and try to add it again. Reason for choosing Codemagic Good price for very well performance. Nice and friendly communication. Easy to integrate Review Source CM Catalin M. Software Developer Telecommunications Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Easy CI/CD" June 29, 2021 5.0 I can iterate fast on the development and clients have almost instant access to my latest work. Pros Very easy to set up for Flutter projects. Cons There were some issues with setting up the App Store account in the past but now everything seems to be working perfectly. Review Source ML Michela L. System Engineer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Codemagic review" June 30, 2021 5.0 for me who use the free version even with the session time limit I can still classify as one of the best production environment tools Pros it is absolutely essential for the cross-platform developer. With.o codemagic it is possible to validate and test the system without the need to create multiple virtual machines and spend time configuring environments. Cons I still find it a bit expensive, especially considering that many developers are "one-man companies", there should be a fixed weekly price for example. That it would be possible to hire the service for a week without deducting minutes. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Developer Computer Software Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Everything about magic of Codemagic" June 29, 2021 5.0 Pros The integration of the flutter development environment lets to get the app directly without any difficulty Cons The simplicity of the website is one of the important factors Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Flutter developer Food & Beverages Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "This platform saves me hours" July 1, 2021 5.0 Great! Pros Now I can git push and forget about manually doing lots of steps each time I want to deploy an update. Cons Automatic creation of a new version draft on iTunes Connect Review Source GK Gokce K. Programmer Analyst Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Mademedia uses Nevercode!" July 25, 2016 5.0 At Made Media we rely on Nevercode throughout our development process, all the way from early tests to final releases. It is an incredible and essential tool that every software company needs! Being able to have centralized control over automated builds is amazing. Configuration takes seconds and the resulting built products get packaged, provisioned, and signed and distributed via installable links, all from the same environment, helping us focus on making our product better instead of wasting time on the tedious and repetitive build process. Pros Excellent Github integration; ability to track multiple-projects and branches; automated app provisioning and signing; automated reports on Slack and email; support for automated UI Tests and Amazon Web Services Device Farm. Review Source Guilherme P. Tech Lead Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great experience for small teams or independent developer" August 26, 2021 5.0 Great experience that saves a lot of time to build a devops pipeline that works greatly. Pros The experience using CodeMagic is awesome. The UI is very intuitive and easy to adapt. It's also handful and flexible if you want to code your pipeline instead Cons It could have one feature of deploy for fluter like deploying for web. Review Source AL Andreas L. Senior Software Engineer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Codemagic review" June 30, 2021 5.0 Pros Codemagic is relatively easy to set up and their how they've structured their free tier makes it easy to test it out I also like that they support putting the workflow set up as code and store it with my code in the repo Cons I haven't seen a great way to create encrypted variables when I want to include them in my codemagic.yml file. I have a work around of setting up a workflow and then exporting it to a codemagic.yml and copy the pieces I need from it Switched from [Bitrise](https://www.capterra.com/p/178004/Bitrise/) Because of how the free tier is structured. With Bitrise they have a 30 minute limit on builds and they would sometimes time out Review Source IB Inshan B. Software Engineer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Build iOS Apps without a Mac" August 9, 2021 5.0 Pros I love codemagic because I can deploy iOS applications without an apple device. I can also remote into the virtual mac machine and make changes within xcode. I can leave the app to build and go about my business and be notified via email if it succeeds or fails. Cons I love that I dont need a macbook to create iOS applications on Review Source MD Mustafa D. Front End Developer Program Development Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "The first configuration is really hard for a new user" June 29, 2021 4.0 First time configuration was really hard. All in all Codemagic is my favorite tool for android deployment. Pros The documentation for new users is a bit insufficient. Mac Pro machines are a bit expensive (for our country). Cons \- Codemagic make easier a deployment after the first configuration. It's really really easy. - Linux machines are fast and cheap. Android deployment is really cheap and easy. Alternatives considered [CircleCI](https://www.capterra.com/p/150380/CircleCI/) Reason for choosing Codemagic Codemagic looks more basic and cheaper than others.

Pros The best is the ease of use, you just have to connect your GitHub account and all the repos are there, and you can build the app right away, without the need of a Mac computer. Cons In my opinion there was no downsides of using the platform, the guides are easy to use, and the UI is self-explanatory. Review Source DS Debkanchan S. Founder Transportation/Trucking/Railroad Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "As simple as CI/CD could get" July 26, 2021 5.0 Pros We started with no idea about CI/CD at all. In 2 days we managed to set up a holistic CI/CD pipeline without writings a single line of yaml. Codemagic docs is all I needed to get started. Cons Currently we do not have any complaints with codemagic Reason for choosing Codemagic Simplicity Review Source Response from Nevercode August 2, 2021 Thank you for your support! That's amazing you were able to set up the whole pipeline that fast. The seamless setup is one of our top priorities. Happy building! CD Craig D. Operations Financial Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Simplified App Deployment" July 1, 2021 4.0 Great addition to our business suite. Used weekly wouldnt look for a replacement Pros Ease of integration to appstore connect (ios). Good documentation - great simple to understand user interface Cons Setup of the yaml file slightly confusing with multiple versions on the net Reason for choosing Codemagic 300minutes of FREE development time per month more than enough for any eager developer Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Software developer Computer & Network Security Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Amazing product" September 4, 2021 5.0 Pros Encrypted keys are the best thing I liked no need to create env vars. Cons Creating and managing teams for multiple orgs is bit confusing. Reason for choosing Codemagic Ease of use and customer support, you guys helped mw setup my github repo with codemagic :) Review Source VP Viktor P. Freelance Developer Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Good for handling my react-native deployment" July 1, 2021 4.0 The setup is not straightforward and I would prefer a more detailed step by step documentation into setting up the deployment process. However the complexities are linked to App Store/Play Console rather than Codemagic. I had some issues with deployment and I was helped quickly on the codemagic support Slack channel even when I am on the free tier currently. The debugging capabilities for failed builds are quite nice and clear and it seems highly configurable. Pros I am using this software to deploy react-native app to App store and Play Console. This allows me to save a lot of time, as I can handle the releases automatically for both platforms. The support Slack channel was very good at helping me sort out an issue quickly too. Cons I would prefer more thorough step by step configuration into react native builds for android/ios. Review Source Amr S. Lead Quality Engineer Computer Software Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "CI/CD Pipelines have never been easier! " August 1, 2021 5.0 Codemagic helped us realize a full automated CI/CD Pipeline in a very short time which was very crucial because we had very tight deadlines. The fact that supports building and deploying Flutter apps was a very good advantage for us. Pros The best thing about Codemagic is the fact that you can create a conplete CI/CD Pipeline for your Mobile Application in a matter of a minutes with very few number of clicks. Codemagic supports seemless integration with third party apps as well which can be of great advantage. Cons I the User Inteface needs some enhancements but this a very small thing. Review Source SS Simone S. Android Developer, Student Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Excellent tool to build on iOS" July 22, 2021 5.0 Deploying and releasing iOS apps on both Pros I'm able to deploy my Flutter project on iOS too thanks to this piece of software. It also lets me see the logs in real time and set a timeout for too long builds. Cons It's pretty slow (simple Flutter iOS app = ~40 minutes) but it's fully understandable since I'm using the free tier. Review Source Response from Nevercode August 3, 2021 Thank you for your response! We offer Mac Pro instances for iOS builds which are much up to 40% faster. You can read more about the machine specifics here: https://docs.codemagic.io/specs/versions4/ And as a recent update, we provide Linux instances for faster Android builds.
