Xcode Cloud Subscriptions Now Available

Apple has announced the availability of Xcode Cloud subscriptions.

Xcode Cloud, the continuous integration and delivery service built into Xcode, accelerates the development and delivery of high-quality apps.

And now, Account Holders can subscribe for more compute hours in the Apple Developer app.




To use Xcode Cloud, you’ll need Xcode 13.4.1 or later and membership in the Apple Developer Program.

● 25 compute hours/month: Free (Free through December 2023, then US$14.99 per month)

Compute hours
A compute hour is an hour of time used to execute a specific task in the cloud, such as building an app or running automated tests. For example, running 5 tests of 12 minutes each equals one compute hour. Xcode Cloud runs tests in parallel with other actions, such as analyzing, archiving, and building, so you’ll get results quickly. You can track compute hour usage across your team in App Store Connect and the Apple Developer app.
