Capgo

Questions from the bench

What is code push and how does it differ from app store submission?

Code push (over-the-air updates) allows deploying JavaScript, HTML, CSS, and asset updates to production apps without app store approval. App store review is still required when changing native code, permissions, plugins, or material app functionality. Capgo helps teams ship web-layer fixes fast while keeping native releases on the normal store path.

What makes Capgo different from Ionic Appflow?

Ionic is winding down Appflow with existing customers able to use it until December 31, 2027, but no new customers or features are accepted. Capgo is actively developed for Capacitor live updates with open-source components, month-to-month pricing, and migration guides for teams moving off Appflow.

How does Capgo handle security and encryption?

Bundles are checksummed, signed, and encrypted end-to-end. TLS protects data in transit, and Capgo applies encryption at rest and access controls for operational data. Enterprise customers can review the DPA, sub-processor list, and SOC 2 materials on the trust and security pages.

Can I cancel or change my plan anytime?

Yes. You can cancel your subscription at any time and keep access through the rest of your billing period. You can also upgrade or downgrade plans; upgrades take effect immediately.

Does Capgo store my source code?

No. Capgo servers never see your source code. When uploading bundles, Capgo stores a zip file of minified/compiled code—the same code a browser would receive—not your source code. For additional security, you can use end-to-end encryption or external URL upload.
