💻 Bitrise for Desktop (v1.0.0)

:new_button: What’s new

Bitrise for Mac is here. It’s a native macOS menu bar app that shows the live status of your builds for the branch you’re working on, right in the menu bar. Download it, sign in, and your build status is one glance away. macOS only, for now.

:puzzle_piece: What problem we’re solving

You push a branch and get back to work, but part of your attention stays on the build. Today that means keeping a Bitrise tab open and checking it, or waiting on a Slack message that lands minutes late. Either way you’re pulled out of your editor to answer one small question: is it green yet?

:white_check_mark: What’s the solution

Bitrise for Mac puts that answer in your menu bar so you stop going to look for it.

  • Status at a glance. A colored dot mirrors your most recent build: passed, failed, running, or aborted.
  • It follows your branch. Point the app at your local project folder and it matches the git remote to the right Bitrise project, then tracks builds for whatever branch you have checked out. Switch branches locally and it follows.
  • One click to what matters. Every build links straight to the Bitrise build, the pull request, or the commit, so you go from a red dot to the exact failure, or from a green dot to the PR you’re ready to merge.
  • Notifications on your terms. Off, failures only, or every completion, set per project.
