GitHub App Reviews

How is my email invalid?. I thought this would be a good app it help with coding but when I got to the create an account I entered my email and it said it was invalid like why is that? I’ve been trying any other methods to fix this but it hasn’t worked, I’ve deleted the app because I’m getting tired of trying to make an account GitHub devs if you are reading this please fix this problem. I really thought this was a good app but now I think it’s a bad app because of its sign in feature. If anyone else is reading this, be prepared to expect a lot of tutorials.

No forking way. So frustrated. Can’t get to my computer, just want to fork a repo. Why can’t this be done from either the app or from the website on mobile? Can’t even seem to get the Desktop site from a mobile browser when you request it anymore. Going to need to manually fork from an ssh app just to accomplish this, which I think also doesn’t get you the normal additional GitHub fork features. I don’t really understand what the point of the app is if it doesn’t give you fundamental features of GitHub.

Can’t view wiki content. Overall, the app is just okay. I ended up having to uninstall it because somethings don’t work as expected. For example, if a repo is using the Wiki functionality, it’s not viewable in the app. Thus, if you click on a link to wiki content, it just brings you back to the main repo page in the app instead of the actual wiki content. The only resolution was to uninstall the app so I can view the content in Safari. At this point, it only gets 3 stars.

Useful but juggling a lot of info. This is definitely useful, but I would not use the mobile app to do PR reviews regularly. Too easy to miss critical context or information on the small screen. Also too much is presented at once. This app could be improved by better managing the intention of the person using it. Deliberately switching modes of inquiry and having the UI adjust is probably better than being able to do anything at anytime. MS Word does this with their toolbars and that’s okey for a word processor. It is burdensome in a mobile app where thoughtful review and clear communication is the end goal.

Just what I needed to keep up with GitHub activity. I use GitHub personally and professionally and I often missed activity (issues etc) when I was relying on email notifications. Since I added the GitHub app to my phone it’s been much easier to stay on top of the GitHub activity and keep projects moving along efficiently!

Awesome app, but needs some extra functionality. I love the app right now but I’m missing some functionality that would take it to the next level: 1. Multi user support. I often times have two or more github accounts and need to be able to sign in with two different users 2. External github server support. In order for this app to really work for a lot of us, we need to be able to sign into our companies hosted github instances. Without this, I can only work on the open source stuff or on things on my personal github account since the github instance I use for work cant be accessed using the app. I want to give you the 5 stars and when those two things happen, I will come back and change the review. Keep up the good work!

GitHub and Git. I have enjoyed every much being able to go to GitHub and get help with updates on my phone and the people who work there are kind and respectful i Apologize but I don’t enjoy my APIS at google but the service a quality is worth every thing I wish I would have known about them before I did my developer and beta certification program I would like them to know how grateful I am to have them and the help that they have given me and

The possibilities are endless. I am a novice developer and a recent CS college grad. This feels like such a natural transition for GitHub as a whole. I don’t know if anything will ever beat the desktop/laptop experience, but using this on my iPhone X has been a pleasant experience. The app does not advertise or make any false promises. It does exactly what it says it wants to do (it would be pretty horrendous if it didn’t given the developer). Being able to keep up with notifications is what mobile is all about. I can only imagine how much better this is on an iPad, especially an iPad Pro.

They fixed the commenting keyboard bug on iPad!. The bug was promptly fixed. Thanks for tracking these reviews likes hawk, y’all are doing great with the app and it runs way faster than the webapp! Updated from 2 to 5 stars. Old review: When I start to type using the on-screen keyboard in a comment, if I type quickly, the panel dismisses and I have to reopen it to type. This is the most aggravating bug in the history of bugs. I will happily change my rating once this is fixed.

Great app! Simple and clean. I love how quickly the app loads and how easy it is to look at issues, PRs, etc. It’s also a very lightweight app in terms of memory. It doesn’t try to do anything that would be too complicated on mobile either which is nice. One constructive criticism: I don’t know if I just missed this feature, but I would LOVE to get push notifications about updates to repos I’m watching. I haven’t been able to find this feature anywhere on GitHub, and it’s definitely a must for this app.

Can’t switch account. I have one for personal (which is a pro account) and one for work. My employer does not want me using a personal account and I completely agree. Both are GitHub accounts so I cannot be logged into both at once. Would be much better if I could since I’m doing one thing during the day and another at night.

Cannot see all files changed. The app works great for the most part! Although currently I am trying to view a particular file in a PR with 30 files that have been changed, but I cannot view anything beyond the first 20 that are listed. Scrolling to the bottom does not load more files and I cannot find a way to search for the file name of interest directly.

Finally, an app. It’s great to finally have an app. Stellar! Supports dark mode and seems to support Dynamic Type size everywhere! Amazing. Hope you bring this app to Mac. 🙂 P.S. The latest feature-spotlight text even says “tap here”, not “click”. Always feels like I’m in a losing battle saying “tap”. Glad to see someone else keeping it alive.

Inferior to web. GitHub web has made an incredibly amount of improvements since being acquired by Microsoft, such as the AMAZING and innovative web editor they launched a few weeks ago. Unfortunately, the iOS team has not kept pace. That being said, the web experience is good for reading through Issues, reviewing some PR’s, but ultimately the web experience is better in many ways on my iPad (especially with the web editor). On a phone, can’t beat it - 5 stars (by default) but 3 stars on iPad. So I will round it out to 4 stars, but quite disappointed in the iPad app.

Great. That I believe would make it somewhat easier for the ones that do this app on their phones like I do and i know for myself speaking it has made my life so much easier when I have this app on and I can now take care of other things at the same time as well Know with the app changes now

Friendly guidance. To be fair, I’m a newbie. I tend to feel lost in crypto and app, and while I’m psyched to be a part ofThings I usually feel quite ignorant. This app kind of is able to push me through step-by-step to get me where I need to be. And that’s not an easy task! So I love it I feel smarter every time I leave the app.

Unusable. My employer uses Zscaler on corp laptops to access GitHub with VPN policy magics to be able to auto-redirect to a 3rd-party SSO page. Unfortunately, my employer’s corp iPhones do not have Zscaler and hence any Enterprise GitHub login attempts end up in a 404 page. Not sure if it possible for GitHub to support a unified SSO interface that works with various SSO providers without the need of deploying VPN.

Bugs galore. I generally use the website instead of this app because the functionality is pretty limited, and too often there’s something I want to do that the app simply does not support or supports poorly because of bugs. For example if you want to search issues from a particular author it only lets you filter on collaborators. Or if you’re reviewing a commit and select “Jump to file” it opens a page that shows the file name and nothing else. Stupid bugs that are very obvious.

Strictly worse than the mobile web app. This app works for the most common few features and clears the very minimum needed to be useable. It’s strictly worse than the mobile website, though. There’s no way to list the active (or stale) branches of a repo or to paste in a github URL to go to that view. Worse, since creating this poor mobile app, Guyhub has started nagging mobile web users to install and open it. It’s nearly enough to bail on GitHub all together for non-OSS usage.

Good app but lacking many features.. There is not particularly wrong with the app but at this point, other than notifications, there isn’t really much reason to use the iOS app over the website. The search on the site is significantly better. The has no apparent way to even view raw files—it doesn’t even let you copy a URL—while the site has all the neat features like git-blame, searching for symbols in and across files. It’d get a 4 or 5 with even some of these features.

PRs show stale information. This had been an issue that caused need to do using the app.. recently started a new job and decided to give the app another go for managing PRs. Consistently the information shown in the app is stale regarding checks statuses. I see that a PR failed a check for PR titles for instance, which I thought I fixed 15 minutes ago.. I check on my laptop, the check has passed and is running other checks. I then sign into GitHub on a mobile browser and it also shows the correct status. I then check back in the app.. stale status.. I back out if PRs after swiping down to refresh didn't work.. no luck.. the app has perpetually stale data and I can't trust it.. Over made comments while working from my phone that have made me seem incompetent since everyone else sees the updated merge or check status but I'm operating off of old information. Wish it worked.

Needs multi-account support. Excellent app for what it has so far! However, the biggest missing feature is support for having multiple accounts signed in at the same time, and being to get notifications from each of them and swapping between them on the fly. It would also be awesome if it supported multiple windows in iPadOS. Being able to reference other parts of a repo in a separate window or split whole reviewing a PR without needing to fallback to Safari would be so nice!

Pretty solid app. Overall it’s a pretty solid app. I really like how snappy it is, and the apps design scheme. I wish there was a way to see the commit history. When looking at source files, I wish there was a way to turn off text reflow, along with simple text editing (for small corrections). I also wish I could see the commit tree. Great app!

has potential but too many dealbreakers. I truly want to like this app but the bugs that have been around since I first used it are driving me crazy. Every time I add a new favorite it’ll disappear from my list a few minutes later, sometimes right before my eyes it’ll remove itself from my list. On top of that, the search functionality is atrocious, and way too limited. We can’t even search our own repos! The search functionality we do have for the rest of the site leaves a lot to be desired and doesn’t even return the same results as the website. We should be able to search our starred repos, our own repos as well as choose how our own repos are filtered, this is bottom of the barrell functionality that should be a no brainer. If its possible on the website, it should be possible in the application. Im honestly shocked at how little functionality this app offers as the official github client. lastly, iOS 14 required now? you cant be serious. time to write a good github client on my own I guess, supporting iOS 13 isnt difficult and theres absolutely nothing earth shattering offered in the 14 SDK that github needs to function. id be embarassed if i wrote an app this shoddy for such a high profile company.

Actually a pretty good app. Just need to review them somewhere to complain about how it should be my choice to use a password. There are plenty of times when it’s a mild inconvenience to get a token, or get a ssh key associated with my account. I’m not a business and I don’t care about the security of my account. I’d rather not be inconvenienced when I set up a project on a new device or want to make a 1 line change on a device that isn’t my primary device. Let me opt out of this! Why must god give me his toughest battles? I want to be free. I wish to be free of the oppression of security fear mongers. Let me use a secure passphrase that is easy to remember!

Frustrating. Unfortunately, it takes over all GitHub links, despite not offering half of the features of the website. Those it does offer it does so in an incomplete or considered manner frequently. Clicking on a search result in a web browser, will open the app to that issue page, but with no way of seeing what repo it’s on even try to go up a screen in the app and you will wind up back at your GitHub “home” screen which offers nothing other than shortlists of pinned or favored repos and such. It’s somewhat of a frustrating experience, and for now, I’ve decided it’s better to not have it at all, than to have it preventing me from using half of GitHub on my phone.

Wonderful app. Only downside is that the notifications don’t always pop up and that discussions can’t be accessed in app. I use it nearly everyday and loving waking up to check if my favorite projects have anything new to check out. Allows me to stay updated on personal projects on the go and overall super neat. Great support and allows for cool customization of the icon.

Explore feed needs work. I really like what GitHub has done with their mobile app, and I’m happy that the explore feed has been implemented after my last review, but it needs a little bit of work. I am getting events in my feed related to organizations and repositories that I am ignoring, and users that I am not following. Either the algorithm that determines the contents of the feed needs to be changed or additional filter options need to be implemented.

Request. Overall, this app is great. It allows for easy parsing of GitHub repos and creating issues. The only idea for the app is a search filter. Already, you can search public repositories, but you are unable to filter your results farther than repos vs profiles vs companies, such as being able to limit your results to just repositories that are made with JavaScript.

Missing a lot compared to mobile site. I wish mobile site was equivalent to the app. I end up switching to mobile site every now and then because either the UX is so different or just doesn’t have a feature. The app feels like a nice to have than GitHub really thinking out it’s mobile strategy with desktop/mobile site/ and mobile app functionality. Feels like to independent teams worked on this.

Kind of Quirky. The app is kind of quirky and requires some getting used to the interface, but it does the trick when I’m on the road and dealing with issues from my iPad. It’s a nice stop-gap until I can get back to my desk and log into GitHub proper. ## Benefits * Brings all notifications and active discussions to the fore. * Don’t need all the mandatory 2FA nonsense to access my repositories for communicating issues and responses, like I would if I just logged into the browser. * Quick access to all my repositories and projects to check status. ## No Markdown Preview There’s no Markdown preview like on the web interface, so you have to wait until you post an issue or discussion to see if you got it all right. All-in-all a tight little app that I use when I’m traveling and trying to stay in touch with my development communities.

Love It! Except….. The app is so glitchy. There are, of course, certain things that you can’t do or access on the app, but that’s to be expected, it’s not supposed to act as a literal fully functional desktop app (that being said, being able to see insights would be a very useful feature). But. OMG. The bugs. The app will suddenly quit constantly for the simplest things like viewing a repo or seeing an organization, it’s become such a pain that I barely open the app nowadays because I know it’ll take so long with all the quitting that it’ll be faster to just open up my computer and see what I’m looking for. Overall, the app has a lot of potential. Until these bugs get fixed, though, I wouldn’t recommend using it.

Bravo team 👏 please continue to maintain. This app has been a lifesaver. I’m able to maintain the community side of several more open source projects while on the go. I obviously don’t expect to be able to do all Git operations through a GUI, but for all of those things I need to do with GitHub, this app does the job 👏

No Following? Only News?. I am not seeing the notifications I would for repositories I follow? I use custom since I don’t want everything all at once, though I also don’t want all of this in my email. Can there be a context header? This is confusing; Is the app designed to allow me to work or permit me controlled access to GitHub? For the second there should be more features, but for the first of the two there would need to be a feed context that changes what displays, same as a workspace.

Non-technical founder. I’m a non-technical founder who was thrusted into a product management role unexpectedly. I was more than pleasantly surprised, I was blown away at the amazing user interface and the ease of use, especially for someone like me who is not familiar with this technology, I also really love the mobile app as I was able to test and put issues in on the go, very impressive, I appreciate what you guys have done.

Looking for Mr. Good App. Well GitHub promises to be better than most. I had to clean up my emails so today I just deleted them all from my past go to account ...all 967 thousand of them. Many were from an app called Google plus...oh 5 or 6 years ago. We loved that app...we were young , restless. On Google plus us wanna be acclaimed scientists would theorize on the basis of gravity , the universality of relativity and what not. Instead today I mostly anticipate the final burn, seeking some satisfaction along the way. I’ve been immersed into this world of hackers , cyber crimes , network insecurity , constant uncertainty and you know what.... I’m starting to enjoy it. My antagonists know one hellava lot about networks and I’m determined to..... oh I really don’t know what I’m determined to do but I kinda enjoy sparring with these unseen contestants. We will see ... I’m now determined to share what I’ve learned and I thing GitHub is where I’ll do it. I just am completely lost in finding a way to start ... But I will ....SOON

Like a web browser but worse. Multiple tabs, bookmarking, sharing links, Handoff between devices, a history of everything you’ve looked at… these all features you get for free by using GitHub in a web browser, but things you aren’t allowed to do in this app. Even worse, the app eats all GitHub links so you can’t even view a GitHub page in a browser if you want to. I would rather have the web version of GitHub be more responsive and full featured at any screen size than have limiting platform-specific apps. This isn’t 2009 when the iPhone first came out, you can’t get away with having a limited “mobile” version of your website and a basic app with a limited subset of functionality anymore.

Amazing App. I very rarely leave reviews for apps, but this one deserves it. I am a mobile app engineer, and I can say without a doubt this is the most pleasant app I have had the pleasure of using. The designers deserve an award for the amount of features they were able to pack into an intuitive experience.

Great for mobile checkin’s. One feature I wished the app had is the ability to edit a repos wiki. I often want to write down ideas and I have to create an issue and then move it later. Also, add labels to issues and assignees would be great. Otherwise it has all the features I use.

Please support all desktop & browser features!. There are so many desktop and browser features that are missing or nearly impossible to find. Start with the biggest ones! And even just simple things, like for example: Whenever I go to a new repo, one of the first things I look at is the date of the last commit/update — well this is super simple to see on desktop / browser — but impossible to find in the mobile app. I’d rather just have a web-view! Seriously come on guys. Please make your mobile app more usable. Thanks.

Commit widget is horribly ugly. Commit history widget is horribly ugly. Instead of displaying a static (slightly outdated) collection of commit history, it shows a network error. If you live in any city and take the subway, expect the widget to be frequently broken and just look horrible on your homescreen. I expected more from an app made by supposedly leading developers

Super helpful, but where are actions?. The GitHub app is super handy for a lot of quick look things (seeing PR or issue updates, checking out a README, etc.), but one of the most important things that I might want to check on is notably missing. Where are CI/CD statuses? Workflow logs? The UI on desktop seems mobile-friendly enough, just give us a webview, just something.

The new update is fantastic!. Most of what I wanted, but was missing, has been added! Ability to view commits and change branches were my most required items and they are now here! Thank you so much! The only thing I personally would love to see in this app is the ability to edit files / commit. At that point, I could delete all my other GitHub client apps and never need anything else again. I’m going to go ahead and 5 star this for all the excellent work! Thank you!

Like the app, but hate the safari redirect. I would like to use this app, but the automatic Safari redirect makes this too painful to use. Either the redirect needs to go away or the GitHub app needs to fully support everything the desktop version of the website supports.

The PWA is still better. The app doesn’t show activity of the users I follow like the PWA does. This app seems to favor the personal development experience over the user discovery experience, which I don’t fully understand (if I want to keep close track of a repo that’s having changes made to it frequently, I’d much rather do that on my computer than my phone). I’ll update my review as soon as the user activity feed is added, like it is on the main site Dashboard, but at this point it just feels like a MVP.

Nice app, easy to use. I love being able to keep up with all my issues through my phone. The user interface is clean and it’s easy to search for repositories. However, there is a feature I would like implemented. I would like the ability to view releases in the app. It’s annoying when I go to a notification for a release and tap on it, only for it to send me to the website. And, if I click a link to the releases of a repository in my web browser, it opens the repository in the app but doesn’t show me the releases. Overall, great app, and if that one feature was added, I would be glad to give this review five stars.

Oh, sick.. Although I always found GitHub’s webapp to work just fine on mobile, it’s definitely nice to have a native option. So far the app seems to work smoothly. My only complaint is the UI—aping the iOS HUI guidelines has done a disservice to the fantastic design of the web platform. But other than that, this is definitely GitHub. And GitHub is definitely great. So 4 stars for u!

They actually use version history!. They actually use the version history instead of just putting nonsense or marketing info!! Plus the updates they do do, have a purpose! It’s not as robust as a browser, or even cmd, but it works great and honest has only gotten better over the years.

Some challenges, but useable. - request to load pull request frequently fail on the first try - submitting comment sometimes throws an error saying the operation failed but when I refresh the page the comment is actually there - the review modal closes seemingly by itself multiple times when I’m typing a review and I have to reopen it to finish writing the review I think the app is needed, especially with iPadOS and more people using magic keyboard. I hope there is continued investment in the app and these problems are addressed.

Feedback.. The Mobile App is less straightforward than the Desktop Web Platform - which is not quite as straightforward as it presents itself to be. From the outside vantage point, it would seem as if ‘Development’ is a nearly ubiquitous new inter-national past time. Thus, though Github has the conceptual mass appeal of a less censorial Instagram or Facebook— it can prove off-puttingly daunting to the uninitiated. One must have not only a vision, and a mania about that vision, but one must have been host to that manic vision long enough that they learn to think of it in new maths and new languages- and write dissertations about it.

Unstable now. Used to have nothing bad to say about this app but recently it has been crashing while I am editing a file

NaTo1000. What a wonderful place and community

Can we have original icon as one of the options?. I like the original icon.

Quite helpful. Great user experience and very handy

Works well for me. For my quick, on the go, tasks it’s much handier than web interface

Easy to use!. Does what needs to be done :)

Well made app but missing some features. Very useful app with lots of functionality. But there are lots of things you can only do on the website. If the app included all the same features as the websites like repo settings/config then it would be better

Finally, I can create PRs on the go. Instant 5 stars for finally implementing this, thank you

Sort by keys. Great new improvements - favourite is sorting by multiple keys : allows me to see old repos that might need attention.

Integrate with Dev Spaces. On GitHub web, you just press the “.” key and the repository opens in VSCode in the browser. Ideally, this should be possible in this app as well. Otherwise, we have to navigate back to the web experience in Safari to use it.

This app is the best. I can’t believe this app it is the best coding app I have ever installed keep up the great work staff team

Brilliant!. One of the best apps I’ve used. Only criticism is viewing github action logs is sometimes buggy when they are in progress.

Poor multiple account support. I use a personal github account (of course). I have a separate work account which doesn't use github enterprise. The mobile app doesn't allow me to alternate between these two accounts.

Miss use platform. Some people in India miss use this platform easily so we need to #ban GitHub

I like our community. Many thanks MS!. Dear friends, I like our community! I like our GitHub!

Who doesn’t love GitHub ❤️. GitHub is the best

Fantastic App. This App is helping me learn coding at a much faster rate than I was previously.

Awesome platform for developer and new learners . Highly recommended. 100% recommendations for developer

Hard work making Living expanding simplistic Solidity!. Grateful for all you have done to become better! ≈ people coming to achieve dreams for freeing us further doing the quest of Phylogenetics Contemplation!

Had to uninstall the app due to a bug in the website. For technical reasons I want to use my TOTP app for 2FA, not the Github app. So when logging into the website I selected the TOTP app 2FA method and checked “use this method in the future”. But over the next few days, the Github website kept defaulting to the Github app verification method, despite the fact that each and every time I was asking it to use TOTP in the future. The only way to make it stop was to uninstall the app. At the end of the day, the app is a nice to have, the website is something I need, so I had to sacrifice the app.

Complete hot garbage.. This update has basically removed 90% of the functionality for zero benefit. Previously the side bar was great for navigating a PR you’re reviewing, that’s all gone. All the shortcuts and filters i had built up, all gone. Previously i would relax at night and review OSS projects I work on, with this change what is normally the best way to do it, is now just a huge mess.

Unusable on iOS. Signs me out everytime I log in - cannot use anymore on ios

Would love Project integration. Otherwise a great app for social coding!

Cant sign in. cant sign in it keeps says you password or emails is incorrect

Strange paste behaviour. Why when I try to select text when editing a PR squash commit comment, does the app try and paste?

Crashing. Keeps crashing at launch since the latest update, reinstalling won’t fix and I use it as Authenticator bro…

Works okay, some minor QoL issues. I wish that the PR filters could just be set to view all PRs for a given repo… I can’t seem to find a way to do that Also lack of visibility on GitHub Actions doesn’t make this a very powerful mobile dev ops tool; would be nice to at least see the status of actions Ability to actually look at PRs and approve/comment is good 😊

So good. Waiting for this for so long!!!!! I can finally interact with my team members on GitHub on the go!

Good job Git is the best. Thank you very much

Easy to use!. Such a nice app!

Nice app. Easy to work

Almost not Github that I know.. This App does many fundamental things that I use day to dat with Github completely differently, from Search to Closing issues or events commenting, rendering it useless if you expect to do the same work. Consistency triumphs any gimmick you consider improvement.

Good but…. Good app but needs support for projects….

Cant sign in.. Never used the app. First time installing it. Straight after it installed I opened it and tried to sign in. I got a error message saying that I triggered an abuse mechanism. Your anti-abuse is too sensitive. In using 4G mobile data with no other devices connected, never used the app before now, and haven’t touched my phone in hours prior to installing the app, so I don’t know what I could have possibly done to trigger your anti-abuse systems. My device is an iPhone Xs Max. Location Chengdu. Network is 4G China Mobile.

Wont give me discussions push notifications. Would love to love the mobile app but can’t for the life of me get notifications to Discussions.

Risk of getting a virus. When I tried to download something from GitHub, I got 4 viruses and threats to my laptop

Please add projects support. Mostly great app, but I really wish I could manage projects through it.

Excellent. So far an excellent app with features and improvements being added regularly. Would be great to see GitHub Actions and Insights also. Keep up the great work guys!

Add GitHub Action plz. Please add GitHub Action capabilities to this app as well

Best of luck. What a ride it was, till the next time folks!

Great app. Except this flea who follows me around hacking my accounts can’t shake him. Dudes worse than AIDS

Finally I can access and keep codespaces on the go!. 5/5 incredible

Honestly Great. I have been waiting for Github to make the move to mobile platforms, I still think there is still more functionality needed, but it’s a great start!

Can’t assign an issue to others. 1. In an issue, when I go to assign a task to someone, I only myself. Other developers have already been added to the repository and accepted. on the other hand, I can see and assign to an issue to others on your website. Once I assign on web and refresh the app it will appear on the app 2. The app's sync is extremely slow; the website is far superior.

Finally GitHub on my Phone!. Very easy to use app, I love being able to add and reply to issues on my phone, its a great way to manage to do lists for my projects.

I was able to create a branch and PR using Claude mobile app. But the GitHub mobile UI was super cumbersome, it was hard figuring out how to find the branch and how to create a PR

Editing tasks in projects. What is the reason behind the design? Fields (e.g. title) can only be edited individually, can’t be all editable at once. Stupid UX design

Great for working on the go!. Would love to be able to merge commits from the app instead of having to log on via safari.

Can’t sign in :(. I can’t seem to sign in to GitHub. I kept saying that I did not have the correct email or password, although I kept try knowing I put in the right email/password but it just didn’t work!

Beginner Student Leaner. I just activated a new account and willing to learned in the nearby future and hopefully we’ll get through this soon

Sad. Somehow gets worse and worse over time. Doing nothing would be an improvement over the current trajectory.

Missing some features of the website. You can’t sponsor people through the app but you can through the mobile website

Useless AI button not no create repo button. Seems like this feature light app is another platform to push pointless featureless capability-free slop with an AI button.

Remove copilot from navbar. Remove copilot from navbar

I’m just going home. 5h4

5/5. Great app, great design, simple to use 👍

Very nice. Easy to use, fun for the whole family.

Cannot search inside a repo, cannot search code. My goodness didn’t Microsoft fill this app store with employee reviews eh! Yeh, annoyingly nothing like the superb github.com. So many shortfalls it’s frustrating. Search bar has no advanced syntax, cannot search for something inside a repo (or it’s not obvious how you would) and cannot search code. Erm, isn't that the whole purpose!? It’s disappointing that such a well respected name in the developer world gives back so little in the ios one. It’s a joke. Top tip, install Working Copy by @palmin, clone the repo of interest and use his app to search code. It’s what I do until Microsoft figure out how to make a dev’s life easier.

p good app. but lets b real monopolistic legalists amirite 🤷‍♂️

Beautiful. I appreciate the thoughtfulness put into the UI and UX of the GitHub app. Bonus points for the awesome app icons!

Looking at diff for PRs feel different. It feels really cool to be able to look at PRs: making comments, approving and merging while being on the toilet

Hour wasted verifying myself just to get locked out. Wasted an hour today trying to get into GitHub so I can report a safety issue on their website. I ended up having to download this app to get in, and set up 2FA, and create a passkey, and then it finally let me click on the report button. Except when I did, it locked me out. Sent me directly to a form to appeal being locked out of my account. So the hour that I spent trying to help GitHub check a dangerous repository was completely wasted, and the issue is still on their website while I’m locked out. What a worthless ******* service. Even when it’s working properly this is the worst possible way to get the things I need unless I’m the command prompt of a Linux device. I hope GitHub one turns into an actual helpful system that you don’t need to be a programmer to use.

Instant crash on iOS 26 IPhone 12 Pro. Maybe test the app??

Al code >. Al code >

Fantastic. Great app, use it all the time

Customizable bottom bar. Why is it limited to Home, Inbox, Explore, Copilot? I don’t care about the last two, especially Dumbpilot. Users should be able to customize these shortcuts to suit their needs. This Liquid Glass design and placement of the bar is already infuriating as-is when I drag the screen down with my thumb to lower content while using the phone one-handed because I will almost always ended pressing one of the buttons and I’ll lose the page I was previously on. Terrible. Just terrible.

Search?. When you browse code, I can’t find the search. Is it missing?

You are great. Best app

Works well, slow to respond. The app works quite well, but navigation is extremely slow.

Good app. Works well

Remove annoying copilot button. Why does there need to be a floating button on every page in the app just to sell me on a feature I don't want and won't pay for. It's insulting that you didn't add a "no thanks" button that dismisses it.

App crashes on start App crashes with no fix after restart, reboot, or reinstall.. App crashes with no fix after restart, reboot, or reinstall.

Really nice app!. Everything works fine and it is really well designed! Good job GitHub! One thing: Can you add options to manage/delete your repositories? Thank you!

Impoverished functionality, limited utility. Lack of basic functionality (inability to bookmark repos opened from external links, fixed and tiny font size, lack of code line numbers, missing summary information about last changes on directory or file lines) render it a nice proof-of-concept, not much more. Developers were impervious to suggestions through TestFlight - it’s difficult to imagine what they believe this can do the standard site viewed in a web browser can’t do better.

App crashes after update. App doesnt open anymore

Good app. What a good app

Super exciting. +1 for dark mode

A guy. The app said even beginner could go this app it’s great but the information is a lot there has to be point by point explanation for us dummies who are interested

All about coding. The best yet it has all the models and all your code all in one place it’s so convenient albeit a bit of a learning curve.

An ode to github. Oh github, I love you so. You keep my code and serve me. You ask little in return except when I activate pro features. AI is too pricey. Expensive to rent cloud space. Can I use my own computers instead? Please let users (through github mobile app and desktop and other apps) run some copilot models myself. The issue submission to prompt an AI is brilliant. Well done overall! Thanks

Legend the only one MR. Badir AL-SAYYED

Good. Good

GitHub native app. I’ve been using 3rd party apps for a while to get access to GitHub workflows on the go, but now this native GitHub app seems to be perfect, no need for any 3rd party apps. Great job! My only wish is to bring projects boards management support as well.

Can’t stop working. Great app to do code reviews on the go

Fast. Snappy and responsive.

Great. So useful

Workflow Options. Pls allow workflows to be deployed from tags and releases

notification related to unknown community. Received an unexpected notification that led to something is wrong view. This seems like a bug or a hack

Non intuitive. Makes it unnecessarily opaque and difficult to figure out how to review a PR, which you would think would be on of the main actions you would want to do for a PR.

Harder than they make it look. GitHub is certainly that.

Copilot coding agent is insane, and it's all on mobile too!!. I already used 100% of my monthly premium quota, and it's only the 8th day of the month. Never needed to use opus even once (or any 3x quota model). Never opened my laptop or editor once either. So many ideas now built and all thru my phone which feels like the craziest part. It's integrated with all GitHub too so it's even better than oai codex which can only raise PRs and do code review. Thank you so much for giving us coding agent in ios, Github team!! So happy!!!

Used to outstanding. It was such a great app but for a few weeks now notifications (not push) are extremely buggy. Sometimes it loads old ones that I already marked as seen, sometimes it just takes forever to load anything. Very frustrating, this app used to make my job so much smoother and now it’s just a hassle. Please fix it.

Amazing. Lets you do so much stuff. As much as you can imagine

FINALLLYYY. I was waiting for this for so long

Love it 💫. Love it 🔥

Not a substitute for github website. GitHub mobile does not have all the functionalities

Great app with terrible side-effects. The app is great, but the security side-effect is a series of disasters. First, once you start using the app it configures itself as the primary MFA method without your knowledge. If you uninstall the app, you need to reinstall and log off, otherwise GitHub keeps the app as a MFA method. If you keep it, you cannot disable the app as a MFA. And the app has no security lock (password or Face ID), so it is a permanent risk to you GitHub account.

Can’t sign in. How tf am i supposed to use this app if i can’t sign in

can’t open in latest version. I can’t even open the app. I tried closing and opening, deleting and installing, but it just instantly crashes and exits every time I try to open it

Great but need some extras. missing a search for repositories listing (left slider) and a sort options (name alphabetical, create/update time...). missing search/find in logs be able to see github actions logs while processing like in web browser on workflow, be able to re-enable them if disabled by inactivity editor?

Adsterra is the most preferred ad network for those looking for an alternative to AdSense. Adsterra is the ideal choice for new sites with low daily traffic. In order to advertise on the site in Adsterra, like other ad networks, a certain traffic limit, domain age, etc. is required. There are no strict rules. Sign up!

Mr. Joseluisquiles. I hope this is all the last things that I have to get done from the bitcoins account I need to have this done for the better of my future life with the bitcoins Bitstamp account I just can’t believe that I have almost 3 years of stress and ansias the get better with my economic situation

github App bug！. When I open the home page of other people's warehouses in GitHubapp, it keeps showing an error and cannot be displayed normally. I have uninstalled and reinstalled it many times to clear the cache and change different networks, but it has no effect. In fact, the network is open, because the other display of the app is normal. But there is no way to open the home page of anyone's warehouse. No matter which option of the app is opened, it shows an error.

Fine, but…. The app is fine and works well, but suddenly I started getting an alert dialog saying “You were signed out” and it logs me out, and if sign in again it logs me and then after some seconds it shows me the alert again, and repeat…. So it is a loop of logging in and out, but on the web it works absolutely fine. Hope it gets fixed soon.

Simple & Reliable. GitHub Mobile gives me all the interfaces I need to perform any action related to version control from my phone. I love the user friendliness and the efficiency of the interfaces, and the design itself is very pretty. Much better than the desktop app.

Finally, an app. It’s great to finally have an app. Stellar! Supports dark mode and seems to support Dynamic Type size everywhere! Amazing. Hope you bring this app to Mac. 🙂 P.S. The latest feature-spotlight text even says “tap here”, not “click”. Always feels like I’m in a losing battle saying “tap”. Glad to see someone else keeping it alive.

Can’t see issues on some repositories. This may be due to the settings of said repository, but it would be helpful to at least say that in the app. I somewhat doubt that’s the case though, why would it be ok to view issues in a web browser but not an app? Otherwise, the app is great.

Good and getting better all the time. When this app first launched, it didn’t have quite the ease of use that I tend to expect from github-related projects. But in the updates since then, it has improved significantly and become an essential part of my workflow.

Feature Request：all activities like web. when i open github in browser, i can see all activities of my following,but github mobile cant. i hope i can see it when i open github mobile just like opening browser.

Abuse and cyber stalking. I apologize upfront but internet and cyber anything was my prison, it was used to monitor me in an abusive relationship,, this git hub no idea what it is but it non stop comes up and the email address that I can as abused with is registered? I can only say that I tried once in feb 2018 to run but tracker.. I remember my victim advocates face when I began crying they asked what was wrong.. a person who I never seen before plugged a charger in the wall for her phone I began sobbing he will find us now. I believe you have hurt me

Nice UI, but constantly failing. It’s great to have a native iPhone app.. finally, but the app is constantly failing to connect and asking to try again. Then, and probably the worst, is that after you write a comment and submit, the app returns an error. It’s not clear if it actually saved or not. In some cases it doesn’t, and others it does. I’ve accidentally submitted the same comment 3x and other times thought I submitted a comment and it never submitted. I expect more from github.

Bravo team 👏 please continue to maintain. This app has been a lifesaver. I’m able to maintain the community side of several more open source projects while on the go. I obviously don’t expect to be able to do all Git operations through a GUI, but for all of those things I need to do with GitHub, this app does the job 👏

Super helpful, but where are actions?. The GitHub app is super handy for a lot of quick look things (seeing PR or issue updates, checking out a README, etc.), but one of the most important things that I might want to check on is notably missing. Where are CI/CD statuses? Workflow logs? The UI on desktop seems mobile-friendly enough, just give us a webview, just something.

Unusable. My employer uses Zscaler on corp laptops to access GitHub with VPN policy magics to be able to auto-redirect to a 3rd-party SSO page. Unfortunately, my employer’s corp iPhones do not have Zscaler and hence any Enterprise GitHub login attempts end up in a 404 page. Not sure if it possible for GitHub to support a unified SSO interface that works with various SSO providers without the need of deploying VPN.

Great App. GitHub is a great app because it lets you work with the more social media type of features. It needs to be updated a lot more so that it becomes at the same level as the online version, but the social media features definitely keep it afloat.

Nicely done. Really feels like the website, but better. Super smooth and intuitive UI and navigation, and the features and improvements just keep coming. I have it set as the default app for all GitHub links on my phone, and there’s no going back!

Excellent app... but. The app is great, I can open files, check my favorite repos and so on but when is the moment to open an entire repo in other app I just can’t literally it isn’t implemented, and doing that with every file is really annoying specially for bigger repos

Great, focused app. Great for reviewing PRs, even adding small suggestions. Push notifications are also nice, better than emails. I also appreciate that it uses native iOS controls (navigation views, lists, etc.), it makes it feel polished and familiar.

Shocked. I didn’t think a mobile gh app would be useful. While it turns out that assumption was largely correct, the ease of use and seamlessness of the app have me using it a lot more than expected. I even fixed a prod bug with the mobile editor while on a vacation

Friendly guidance. To be fair, I’m a newbie. I tend to feel lost in crypto and app, and while I’m psyched to be a part ofThings I usually feel quite ignorant. This app kind of is able to push me through step-by-step to get me where I need to be. And that’s not an easy task! So I love it I feel smarter every time I leave the app.

Some challenges, but useable. - request to load pull request frequently fail on the first try - submitting comment sometimes throws an error saying the operation failed but when I refresh the page the comment is actually there - the review modal closes seemingly by itself multiple times when I’m typing a review and I have to reopen it to finish writing the review I think the app is needed, especially with iPadOS and more people using magic keyboard. I hope there is continued investment in the app and these problems are addressed.

Awesome app, but needs some extra functionality. I love the app right now but I’m missing some functionality that would take it to the next level: 1. Multi user support. I often times have two or more github accounts and need to be able to sign in with two different users 2. External github server support. In order for this app to really work for a lot of us, we need to be able to sign into our companies hosted github instances. Without this, I can only work on the open source stuff or on things on my personal github account since the github instance I use for work cant be accessed using the app. I want to give you the 5 stars and when those two things happen, I will come back and change the review. Keep up the good work!

Incomplete. If this is a mobile productivity and communication tool, it’s incomplete without comprehensive push notification support. Things like: new issues, comments on issues, pull request activity, etc. should all have associated notifications. Until then, I’m still reliant on 3rd party apps like CodeHub.

Many page urls not working properly. I’ve already submitted a bug report on this, but none of the wiki page, release, or Kanban board links work right with the app. Any link to instructions on a wiki just redirects right back to the root of the repo. It’s a decent app, but this frustrates me a lot leaving this only useful for responding to issues or looking for new projects, not actually doing anything productive.

Great for mobile checkin’s. One feature I wished the app had is the ability to edit a repos wiki. I often want to write down ideas and I have to create an issue and then move it later. Also, add labels to issues and assignees would be great. Otherwise it has all the features I use.

Use the web app instead. GitHub’s mobile app lags far behind the web app in features, appearance, and usability on a handheld device. It does nothing to take advantage of running as a native app. Kudos to the web interface developers for doing a great job and making the mobile interface developers look bad. It might have been wise to name this app “GitHub Lite” to better set user expectations.

Software glitch reporting. Screencasts appear to be limited to about 20 seconds; anything bigger than that gets rejected with no explanation. With screencasts being so useful for observing the clickstream and workflow of a mobile software app, it would seem that screen cast videos should be supported by the GitHub platform.

Like the app, but hate the safari redirect. I would like to use this app, but the automatic Safari redirect makes this too painful to use. Either the redirect needs to go away or the GitHub app needs to fully support everything the desktop version of the website supports.

Missing critical functionality that makes it useless. Updated: How is it that pinned issues are NOT for each user? I pin it for me because it is high priority but someone else can u pin it! And only pin 3 issues? There are quite a few functionality on a mobile app that is absolutely critical and it is missing, for example, didn’t they think about adding a filter for all issues? It only allows you to filter by what do you have created or what involves you? What if you are an admin?So now the app is absolutely useless and I have to go to a computer in order to review those issues more over, I know the issue was created by myself. And forget support, nobody appears to work at this company even though they’ve raised a ton of money and have grown substantially

super useful for discussions, issues, notifications, even sometimes PR reviews. Honestly thought this would have limited utility (because what are you going to do on GitHub on your phone really) but it’s very well implemented

Great!. I have some open source projects that PRs, mentions, and issues pop up here and there. It’s nice being able to look through them while being away from the computer.

Strictly worse than the mobile web app. This app works for the most common few features and clears the very minimum needed to be useable. It’s strictly worse than the mobile website, though. There’s no way to list the active (or stale) branches of a repo or to paste in a github URL to go to that view. Worse, since creating this poor mobile app, Guyhub has started nagging mobile web users to install and open it. It’s nearly enough to bail on GitHub all together for non-OSS usage.

A good start. A good start. The mentioning experience needs some improvement. And what I really need is support for GitHub projects. We use GitHub for our whole sprint management and the lack of a mobile support for projects is one of my main grievances.

I can’t login. I can’t use the app because I can’t even login. After clicking on sign in button it takes me to github page where I’m supposed to authorize the app to access my account but the page only shows a list of permissions with a disabled “Authorize GitHub” button. I guess there is a hidden checkbox somewhere for agreeing terms or something, of which checking it will enable the button, however I don’t see anything like that so I can’t login.

Notifications are broken. I've never seen the notifications feature work, which is the primary reason I installed the app. The only other reason why I still keep it around is bc Microsoft forces you to if you're not signed in on a web browser and wish to use basic features.

More functions for copilot. Great app, but since I subscribed for copilot pro, you may add more function like not just a floating button but a page just for copilot, also we need a model changing option and the capability of reading my given repository information and etc

Amazing App. I very rarely leave reviews for apps, but this one deserves it. I am a mobile app engineer, and I can say without a doubt this is the most pleasant app I have had the pleasure of using. The designers deserve an award for the amount of features they were able to pack into an intuitive experience.

Awesome, but missing one feature. Great app, includes everything you need to access issues, pr’s and other critical features. The one thing I haven’t seen yet is gist viewing. When I click a gist in notifications, it opens in the browser. I would want a way to view gists too.

Great app, version 1.1.0 is great!. I would like to be able to view prior commits, and what has changed in repositories, especially if I don't have write access, so that I can view what has happened. If this were added, I would increase this to 5 stars. Edit: 1.1.0 resolved this!

Amazing!. Finally I can respond to requests and search repositories on the go. There are a lot of Github iOS apps out there. Although this one seems promising. I am still checking out the features but, this seems to do well.

Long repo names. On my iPhone SE, I literally can’t read the names of my projects because the containing organization (LongishCompanyName) fills the horizontal space. Either let long names wrap, or scroll, or provide (start...end) middle-truncation, or at least let me create alias short-names for Favorites.

Good for most things. Need to write an issue? Great. Notifications? Works fine. Browse repositories? Fair enough. But some things seem very difficult or impossible to do from that app that are trivial to do from the website. They need to have more features like creating new branches. Great in general though.

Great quality stuff. This is some good stuff. Please keep up this excellent quality even if it means slowing down on feature related stuff. Would eventually love more details and control over Actions, like being able to kickoff a workflow.

Improving all the time. The app continues to improve and become a better experience. The features that are released actually work. Can’t wait to see the continued improvements!

Why it can’t type in any Chinese to search on the iPad?. When you use the iPhone version , there is no problems on typing Chinese to search. But there is a huge Bug on the iPadOS, which causes you can’t type any Chinese words in the input box. Once you switched your typing way from English to Chinese, there is no any responses on typing. It’s still the English but not the Chinese.

One star until editing text is available. For Microsoft of all the enormous corporations, you would think they would have the QUINTESSENTIAL, MOST USED AND VALUABLE FEATURE of GIT - editing a basic text file. Why have people been begging for this for YEARS and, not only does Microsoft IGNORE THE REVIEW AND FAIL TO REPLY (even using boilerplate) but they HAVE YET TO IMPLEMENT SUCH A CRUCIAL FEATURE! Get it together and stop simply trying to maximize your profits and (blatantly abusive) users’ personal data collection and dissemination/wholesaling (for more moolah 💰💰💵💸 🤑🤑🤑

Able to sign in to a specific account. I love the app. The only thing I wish was possible is that seeing that I have multiple accounts saved in my Keychain, I should be able to chose which account I want. Also, an option to switch between accounts and not just repositories. If those were there, it’s a 5 star for me.

User Friendly. Such a great mobile experience. Just asked codex to fix vulnerability, created pull request watched deployment statuses and merged the fix. I can’t believe mobile view is better than desktop

Works pretty well. Glad they finally came out with a mobile app, no complaints. It works pretty seamlessly. There’s fewer features than the full web version but they’re adding more parity over time.

Pretty solid app. Overall it’s a pretty solid app. I really like how snappy it is, and the apps design scheme. I wish there was a way to see the commit history. When looking at source files, I wish there was a way to turn off text reflow, along with simple text editing (for small corrections). I also wish I could see the commit tree. Great app!

Gethub. This requires a login. But when you go to the site it doesn’t. For just browsing. Why can’t people just browse and download from the app without a login ? The rating would have been better that way. Only reason is because it’s missing that option. And I don’t like being forced to make a login when I can just go to the site. I just thought this would be easier. But it wasn’t. I’ll go ahead and delete it.
