Announcing the 2026 𝝠 Expo App Awards 🙌
The talent, the care, and the craft we see in the Expo community is staggering. There are powerful, beautiful, important apps getting built with Expo tools and services every day.
The 𝝠 Expo App Awards is a celebration of the apps
It took us a week but we've finally narrowed down a shortlist of Expo App Award candidates for each category 😅.
We'll announce the nominees this week (top 6 in each cateogory). We'll announce finalists next week (top 3 in each category).
The winners will be announced via Livestream on Tuesday, November 24th.
Looks like your Mac CI runner just became optional.
e2e runs iOS and Android tests on Expo Simulators from Linux, on every pull request.
There are a lot of reasons to love this. Tough to narrow it down...more confidence in every PR is probably the best thing.
Testing iOS apps in CI usually means paying for a Mac.
With e2e and @expo Simulators, your iOS and Android tests run in the cloud on every pull request, with no Mac in your CI.

So when you ask Codex to build or ship an Expo app, it's working from the real docs instead of guessing. This is a head-start for getting yourself into agentic
Exact is stupid fast. 120fps scrolling, near-instant startup, and web perf right up there with Astro.
You write UI in Contract, a typed language that's built by @ccheever and agents for agents.
Right now Exact is pre-alpha - we're sharing it because we want more users/feedback. Have your agent try it:

I want to share a preview of something I've been working on called Exact. It's a new Agent Native app framework written in Rust. It's extremely fast and tries to let you build exactly the experience you want with no compromises.
