Menu bar app for installing builds and launching simulators and emulators in one click
Expo Orbit speeds up the development workflow with one-click build launches and simulator management from your menu bar. It is built for mobile developers who test apps on simulators, emulators and real devices.
You can open local build files, bring in builds from EAS, and start your simulators without hunting through other tools. Orbit supports Android .apk files and iOS Simulator compatible .app files, and it is available for macOS, Linux and Windows.
