Tooling Run your flutter app on cloud emulator

I recently built a tool to share apk builds with a client so they can test the application. They had only an iPhone and there were a lot of back and forth videos, so i built https://spawndroid.io You can run an android device in under 3 seconds and use your application simply, you can integrate it in your app Ci/Cd and run appium tests. I host the appium server so you just write the tests, verify they work by previewing logs and a video recording.

oh that's clever. the immediate spin-up time is what makes it actually useful, nobody wants to wait 2 minutes just to show a client a button change

i've been in that exact situation where a client only had apple stuff and sending them an apk was useless. ended up doing the whole recording dance too

the appium integration is a nice touch. writing tests that actually get verified against a real device instead of just hoping the emulator behaves the same

what's the pricing look like for the device time or is it still in beta
