Simple JavaScript APIs, Complex Logic Handled
SDK handles all complex update logic—checks, downloads, verification, rollback. You get clean React hooks and JavaScript APIs for custom update flows. No native code needed.

Simple React Hook API
Use `useStallionUpdate` hook to detect app updates. Get `isRestartRequired`, `newReleaseBundle`, and metadata—all in pure JavaScript. No native code needed.
Automatic Background Updates
SDK automatically checks for app updates when app moves to foreground. Handles patch downloading, SHA-256 verification, atomic bundle application, and rollback automatically.
Mandatory & Optional Updates
Support CodePush-style mandatory updates and optional updates with custom UI. Track progress, show release notes, control when updates apply.
Custom Update UI Flows
Build custom modals, banners, or prompts with JavaScript APIs. Control visibility and timing while SDK handles all complex update logic.
import { useStallionUpdate, restart } from 'react-native-stallion'
import Modal, Button from 'react-native'
// Hook automatically detects updates
const UpdateModal = () => {
const { isRestartRequired,
newReleaseBundle } = useStallionUpdate()
if (!isRestartRequired) return null
return (
<Modal visible>
<Text>
newReleaseBundle?.releaseNote || 'Update ready!'
</Text>
<Button onPress=restart
title="Restart App" />
</Modal>
)
}Patch updates that feel invisible.
Ship app updates that users never notice. Transform bulky bundles into tiny patches—98% smaller. No App Store delays.
Ship only what changed—tiny patches that are cryptographically verified and applied atomically. Instant app updates, 98% less CDN traffic. Free tier available.
Server computes the magic
Compares bundles, computes a 236 KB binary-safe diff with checksums and rollback metadata. All automatic, all secure.
App applies it seamlessly
Devices download the 236 KB patch, validate checksums, and flip atomically. If anything fails, instant rollback. Zero downtime, zero drama.
Enterprise-Grade Security
Protect your React Native app updates with cryptographic bundle signing, automatic crash detection, and instant rollback capabilities. Built for production with enterprise security standards.
