You can’t even view your source code without paying

Is it worth it? No idea but I’m not going to pay money to some random app right out the gate just to see if this app is functional. Being able to simply view your source code shouldn’t be a premium feature. That should be the barest of minimums.

Constantly re-auth

This is missing a lot but what’s there is inaccessible because it makes you re auth pretty much every time you launch the app. For those of us with strong MFA this makes it practically impossible to use.

Too many ads

The app would be useful if there wasn’t a massive advert taking 20% of the screen space. I wouldn’t pay for it because it’s not a smooth experience.

Does not connect in 2023

It requests the server name, but is not able to connect to the public default. Seems like this app is non functional at this point.

Missing a lot of features

To start the app is in an annoying spot at the top. I would be happy to upgrade to the paid version to get around that. But there are too many missing features. You can view a few things. But anything such as commenting and approving merge requests, commenting on issues, and anything with pipelines is not a feature. Plus there no dark mode
