### 2/5 — Better off with 3rd party git editors

*2026-09-02, version 1.274.0*

It acts more as a tiny code reviewer then a GITHUB app. At least give us a small environment to edit our code and maybe do some versioning

### 3/5 — Cool, but…

*2026-08-31, version 1.274.0*

This app is really cool, I can see my repositories on the go. But see is the keyword there. Why can I not add files directly to the repo? I have to go and do it on the website which defeats the point of having the app for me. Please could you consider adding this?

### 3/5 — Pretty good

*2026-08-27, version 1.273.0*

Could use more features, but it’s decent

### 2/5 — Functional, but marred by an ill-conceived "Favorites" feature that tops out at 25 entries

*2026-08-25, version 1.273.0*

A prominent "+" button features at the top of the screen - but soon you discover it's capped at a paltry 25 (!) entries. 

This is a plea to the developers to revamp this feature to make it more useful. Mobile users need a way to capture / organize / access the bounty of completely fascinating repos we may encounter on Github. 

Hint: that number is > 25.

### 2/5 — Mid browsing experience

*2026-08-24, version 1.273.0*

No way to search for a file you know is in a directory you just have to scroll past 1000 other files to find the exact file. Don’t want to have to use global file search on a massive codebase to open I file path that I know. 

When holding your phone sideways and trying to leave a review comment the entire code you are trying to refer to is blocked by the text box. 

Only use this app since there’s hardly any good alternatives for doing code review of ai agent work from a phone

### 4/5 — 不错

*2026-08-23, version 1.273.0*

### 4/5 — PR bug, for Merge Bypass through Rulesets, merge button doesn’t appear

*2026-08-15, version 1.272.0*

The merge button doesn’t appear if the bypass is allowed through rule sets if it’s just using normal protection it does appear but not for rules

### 5/5 — Phenomenal app. You can do so much on the go!

*2026-08-14, version 1.272.0*

### 1/5 — copilot

*2026-08-22, version 1.273.0*

worked great. then they added a copilot button that replaced my profile button. Can't get rid of it, and to switch profiles you now have to go to home then profile. Why would I want copilot more than my profile. Especially bad if logged in to multiple accounts.

### 1/5 — Copilot fails a lot

*2026-08-20, version 1.272.0*

Trash

### 1/5 — Significantly more unintuitive than the website

*2026-08-20, version 1.272.0*

It's buggy, actions don't show the real time logs while they run, pull requests other than open ones don't even show under My Pull Requests, misses features that are available in the website

### 1/5 — too many requests 😂

*2026-08-16, version 1.272.0*

the worst app ever made

### 1/5 — 굿

*2026-08-15*

다 굿인데 비밀번호 빠꾸 먹는거 고쳐주세요. 보안 경고를 강요하지 말아주세요.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2026-08-14, version 1.272.0*

No way to list or search your own repositories.

### 1/5 — free tokens

*2026-08-12, version 1.271.0*

i want free copilot tokens

### 1/5 — Again?

*2026-08-07, version 1.271.0*

Just updated to ios 16.7 to use the app and you just announced it will be the last version today ? Who are you kidding your app is not that complex to move to the next iso version no features required from ios 17 to make the fully functional this a really no sense as i’m stuck on ios 16.7.

### 1/5 — Awful customer service

*2026-08-05, version 1.270.0*

Still waiting for response from support, it’s like it’s non existent

### 1/5 — Poor features and UX

*2026-07-27*

Very limited
