About NativeBridge

NativeBridge is a cloud platform for testing native and hybrid mobile apps, offering Android emulators and iOS simulators accessible from a browser or from VS Code/Cursor via an extension. It supports apps built with Android Studio, Xcode, React Native, and Flutter, and covers over 50 Android and iOS devices spanning multiple OS versions. The platform includes manual and AI-assisted test generation, test execution, and analytics, and supports automation frameworks including Maestro and Appium, with webview automation for hybrid apps such as Ionic and Cordova.

The product is aimed at developers, QAs, designers, and PMs, particularly for streamlining pull request reviews and cross-team collaboration. It generates shareable "magic link" previews of app builds that let users test an app directly in the browser without downloading an APK or setting up a device, and these links can be embedded in websites, documentation, or pitch decks, or generated automatically per PR through CI/CD integration via a Magic Link API. Direct device connections are supported through ADB (Android) and Xcode (iOS) against a unique device URL issued per session.

For physical device testing, NativeBridge hosts its own devices or partners with third-party device farms; no local hardware or Mac is required. Sessions are described as end-to-end encrypted, with app binaries deletable on request and session recordings kept client-side and accessible only through the user's account; the company states GDPR compliance. A free tier is offered with no credit card required.
