What does Transporter do? Transporter is the simple and easy way to deliver content to Microsoft. Easily send apps, music, movies, TV shows, or books for distribution on the App Store, Microsoft Music, Microsoft TV app, Microsoft Books, or iTunes Store. • Simply drag and drop your content into Transporter to get started. • Validate and upload multiple files simultaneously for fast delivery. • View delivery progress, including validation warnings, errors, and delivery logs, so you can quickly fix any issues. • See a history of past deliveries, including date and time. An App Store Connect, iTunes Connect, or encoding house account is required.

Very useful... but has a few quirks
Very useful little utility, especially if you use 3rd party development tools like RAD Studio. However, its ideosyncracies are frequently annonying. In particular, it often seems to have real issues just uploading, where it gets to 85%, and then reverts back to 60%. Often it does that multiple times, and sometimes it keeps trying for hours. If you catch it in this loop, cancel the upload, and then start again, it often completes correctly. Don't know if it is this app, Microsoft not being able to run slowly enough for my 800 Kbps upload, or Microsoft's servers, but the sudden backwards jumps and highly inaccurate remaining time estimates makes me suspect that they stole the counting logic from Dominion. ;-) Anyway, nice standalone utility. Does the job... eventually. Often just needs a kick or two during a reluctant upload.
Gets the job done
Deploying react native apps and submitting with transporter is a pretty streamline process. Would be nice to see some direct integrations with expo and react native, for example, it takes around 30 minutes to get a build. Then after all the work I submit, transporter fires it off to the Microsoft store and 2 hours later I get some dumb error about the build or version number. Seems like that's an error that could autonomously checked for before going through the process. Overall this is a pretty good app. This may be more feedback for the entire process, but much better than I remember it being years ago
Shaky
The interface is simple/clean, but aspects could be thought through a little more. For instance, if a delivery fails - I definitely want to know why. The error should be displayed immediately rather than being hidden behind a button. And the error is sometimes less than useful - the latest one was "json request failed" or something to that effect. Tried again with the same file, and it worked this time, for some reason... (for cases like this, a "Retry" button would have been nice...)
Decent, but glitchy on slow network connections
Pretty bare bones, but does the job. I wish there was an option to pause an upload (Microsoft has issues with letting you pause things, for some reason). On a slow network the progress bar goes insane, jumping backward and forward. Really quite worthless if you want to estimate how far along the upload is. Overall it's a meh from me. Could be better, could be worse.
Great, but limited
I love using Transporter to upload builds to Microsoft, however, it is a bit sad that there is such limtied functionality, can only upload apps, why isn't this possible to just do on the Microsoft Website (need another app just for uploading). Furthermore, if this app was available on Windows, it would make life so much easier and simplify our workflow.
