Preview & Testing
Scan a QR code and see your Bilt-built app running on your iPhone or Android device instantly. No App Store submission, no build steps, no waiting.
Benefits
Browser previews are good. Real-device testing is better. Expo Go bridges the gap between building in Bilt and holding your app in your hands.
See exactly how your app looks and feels on a real phone. Touch gestures, animations, and native features all work authentically.
Skip the compile-and-install cycle entirely. Expo Go loads your app over the network in seconds, not minutes.
Send the QR code or preview link to teammates, clients, or beta testers. They install Expo Go once and can preview any project.
Expo Go is available on both platforms. Test your cross-platform app on any device you have handy.
Make changes in Bilt and see them reflected on your device automatically. No need to rescan or restart.
Preview and test your app without an Apple Developer account or Google Play Console. Perfect for early-stage validation.
