Info

Release Mode is a feature that prevents accidental application releases and ensures intentional updates by controlling the state of application versions.

  • It can be enabled in project settings and allows administrators to lock or unlock the release state of application versions.

  • When a version is marked as "Released," it signifies readiness for deployment to mobile devices.

  • This label ensures that when users update their apps, they receive the latest released version, streamlining the update process and maintaining version control.

If you have the Release Mode setting enabled for your project space, you can see an option to lock or unlock the release mode for your application.
