## When it is useful

OTA JS/asset updates via expo-updates + EAS CLI (`eas update`, channels/branches/runtime). Use when publishing over-the-air JavaScript and asset updates to an Expo app without a new native store binary. Distinct from eas-update-insights (health/adoption of published rollouts, not publish) and eas-app-stores (native store binaries).

## The Catch

EAS service, costs apply (Free plan has update/bandwidth/storage allowances). Distinct from live eas-update-insights (health/adoption, not publish) and eas-app-stores (native store binaries).
