Automated Play Console Release Monitoring
Every morning, WebRun opens Google Play Console, reads the state of each release track, the crash and ANR rates on your current version, and any policy or review warnings, posts a short health report to Telegram, and texts your on-call number through Twilio when a number crosses the critical threshold you set.
How do I monitor Android release health and crash rates every day?
WebRun opens Google Play Console every morning and reads each release track, the rollout percentage, the crash and ANR rates on the current version, and any policy warnings. It posts a health report to Telegram and texts your on-call number through Twilio when a metric crosses your critical threshold, so a bad build gets caught early.
- A crash spike reaches on-call the morning it starts
- Releases stuck in review are visible instead of silently waiting
- Every app's rollout state is in one message before stand-up

How is each run configured?
Secure by default
Connect once, stays signed in
WebRun signs in once and keeps each session in a persistent environment, so every run picks up right where it left off.
Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Can it halt or change a rollout?
No. WebRun reads Play Console only. It never changes a rollout percentage, halts a release, submits an app for review, replies to a store review, or edits a listing. Those stay human decisions.
Who receives the text alert?
Only the on-call numbers you save yourself. WebRun never texts an app user, a reviewer, or anyone outside your roster, and anything below the critical threshold is queued for you to release rather than sent.
What counts as a spike?
You set the crash rate and ANR thresholds. WebRun compares the current version against them and against the previous version's numbers, and only pages when your critical line is crossed.
