#2Goodbye Android builds.
edit: yup;
On March 1, 2018 buddybuild will stop servicing apps on the Free Starter Plan. Also on March 1st, the buddybuild service will stop supporting Android apps for all plans. Any historical data related to those apps will be deleted from the service at that time.

This gives my current team two months to find a new solution. Buddybuild, aside from the odd issue from time to time, had been a great solution for us. Now we're suddenly wondering where to go next. Not to mention, we now face the question of whether to move our iOS apps off buddybuild as well.

I'm sure your team had an incredibly productive December and are ready to get migrating on the double! Oh, wait, you're probably catching up from a month full of time-off and holidays and were planning on hitting it hard on new features in Jan..
Same boat here, we'd JUST started using BuddyBuild a month or two ago.

#6And just like that, by dropping Android support, Buddybuild goes from viable solution to total non-starter. Does any serious mobile app development these days really go all-in on one platform?
Re: Apple acquires Buddybuild
#7If anyone has a good Android (or even iOS) replacement, share here? I know myself and likely many others will be looking to migrate this month.
Re: Apple acquires Buddybuild
#8I recently posted an „Ask HN“ asking for a flexible CI system. Most of the suggestions were proprietary hosted SaaS solutions.
I was sceptical, and things like that keep me sceptical. Sure, setting up a CI system yourself is maybe a bit harder than using a hosted solution. But if the provider decides to change their offering, you are in big trouble. You‘ll need to spend a lot of time switching to a new sevice, migrating all your data and processes. And once that is done, you can start to retrain all your employees.
And you always have to be ready for that scenario, at two months notice....

#92 months is not enough time for people to find alternative solutions.

Apple does, obviously.
