What is Watchbuild?

When you upload a new binary from Xcode to App Store Connect, you have to wait until it’s done processing before you can submit it to the App Store.

As the #iosprocessingtime varies from a few minutes to multiple hours, it’s easy to forget to check App Store Connect to see if the build is ready. WatchBuild lets you know as soon as it is done.

WatchBuild is a simple standalone tool that shows a notification once your newly uploaded build was successfully processed by App Store Connect.

Once the build is ready to be pushed to TestFlight or for review, you get a macOS notification. You can even directly click on the notification to open the build on App Store Connect.
