Can I build iOS apps using Windows?

Yes. This is Expo EAS's strongest point. You code on Windows, push to EAS Build, and Expo uses Macs on the Cloud to build the installation file for you.

How much faster is this compared to the Free plan?

Significantly faster because you don't have to queue and are allocated servers with stronger CPU/RAM.

It is a feature that helps you update JS code/Assets for user apps without requiring users to re-download the app from the Store.

Is there a limit on monthly builds?

The Starter plan usually comes with a certain amount of "Build Credits" or unlimited builds but limits concurrent runs . Please check the package description carefully at the time of purchase.

Do I need to provide my GitHub password?

No, only your Expo.dev account information.

Does it automatically submit to the Store after building?

If you configure EAS Submit, the system will automatically push to Store Review for you.

Is this account private or shared?

Empire Tech upgrades directly on your personal account, ensuring absolute source code security.
