New in Runway: Change App Plans on the Fly

Posted by: Richard Wossal
9 April 2025

We’ve just made Runway a lot more flexible: you can now change your app’s plan at any time, directly from the command line.

Apps on Runway always run under specific plans that define their resource reservations and limits — like memory and CPU. What’s new is that you can now switch between plans instantly, whenever your needs change.


Scale Up or Down, Anytime

Preparing for a launch? Scaling back after a busy cycle? You’re in control. Just run, for example:

runway app plan set -a myapp -p pro-m-launch

No support tickets, no delays — plan changes take effect right away, with little to no downtime.

Check Plans and Usage Easily

Not sure what plan your app is on? Or want to browse what’s available? Use the CLI to check:

runway app ls
runway app show -a myapp
runway plan ls

You can also see full CLI reference details and usage examples in our plans documentation.

Built for Flexibility

This update makes it easier to:

Your infrastructure should grow with your app — not get in the way.


Ready to try it? Run:

runway app plan set -a myapp -p your-new-plan
