Capacitor Live Updates: A Complete Guide to OTA Updates

Capacitor Live Updates let teams ship over-the-air changes to the app’s web layer without rebuilding the native binary.

Only binary-compatible updates are allowed, so app-store rules are respected as long as native code, capabilities, and behavior remain unchanged.

The approach can cut release cycles from days to minutes and supports staged rollouts for faster, safer iteration.
