Good app

If you are familiar with git the setup will go smoothly. Required some reinstalls to get it perfect, but that was fine. Works well for Obsidian!

Buggy mess - avoid!

Can’t clone a repo. Won’t list all repos. Awful UX. Premium features with zero trust. Avoid this app at all costs you will just be frustrated and waste your time and maybe your money.

Works great on iPhone, hang on startup on iPad

This product is a life saving for my self hosted git obsidian notes. I use this app to pull repo to iPhone for reading. However, this app does not work on my iPad mini (A17 Pro) with latest 26.5 system. It just hangs with a black screen on startup. I tried multiple times to reinstall the app and reboot the iPad. No luck. Would be great if the developer can fix the iPad version!

Welcome the change in pricing and it works

UPDATE (3/13/2026)

Last time I looked into it I had to pay multiple times to upgrade. But that seems to have changed lately.

I also had issue with ssh keys and sync issues, but seems like those have been resolved as well.

I am glad the developer is listening to feedback and making changes.

Response from developer

Hey, I have been listening to user feedback and so the latest release consolidates Enhanced Scheduled Sync and Premium into one unified purchase with better explanation of the extra features premium now provides. I appreciate your feedback here and thanks for helping to improve the app :) Also, git fetch is "Download Changes" in Sync Mode and "Fetch Origin" in Client Mode

Functions and is actively maintained

A solid app. I use it for obsidian. It works! Limiting to one repo for free makes sense. It’s not the most reliable yet but it’s actively maintained and improved. I appreciate you Dev

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the kind words and for sticking with us through the improvements, it really means a lot. Your support keeps me motivated!

Works. Expensive. Multiple “Lifetime” “Premium” unlocks totaling $44 for full functionality.

Free functionality is great.

My earlier 1-Star Review seems to be lost. Bumping to two stars due to

$44 is really expensive for git client… $15 seems reasonable. Plus why is automatic sync separate? Real lame. One star Deduction.

Premium is cheaper on GitHub. One star deduction. How long before that $15 isn’t enough, and the app connection to your GitHub supporter “magically breaks”. I understand “It’s Just a License” to use software. You’ll own nothing and be happy.

Two individual “premium” “lifetime” unlocks? Doubtful. How long before the dev says, eh. Git fetch is a premium feature. Git push and git pull are premium and separate? I figure not long… one star deduction.

Seems polished. Price high.

$44 for a gpl 3.0 repo on GitHub?

$20 bucks for more than one repo, and $24/lifetime or $13/year for scheduled actions.

Look devs gotta eat, but I’m skeptical to unlock “full functionality” because I wanna use more than 1 repo and have automatic push/pull.

Maybe I’m a spoiled brat. Maybe not. You choose.

I understand that this might be a bit much for some people! Alternatively, you can purchase premium through GitHub Sponsors, which tends to be a lower amount, and I can help you enable app open/close based sync using Shortcuts if you join the Discord (I'm still working on improving this, which is why it's not advertised in the app yet). Lastly, there's also Working Copy as an option for iOS git clients :) https://discord.com/invite/cgvjdDyzzB

Doesn’t work

Constantly hitting errors, failing to pull changes in both sync or client mode. Can’t commit or stage any files, nothing happens. Local files don’t update when pulling from remote branch.

Response from developer

I'm really sorry about your experience! I'm always working on improvements. Please could you join the discord, where I can help you more directly. https://discord.com/invite/cgvjdDyzzB

Keeps my notes sync’d between iOS and Android

I use GitSync to sync my Obsidian vaults on two mobile devices running entirely different OS. I like how easy it is to automate the git commit. I also like how I can one-click manual sync and confirm that all the changes are correctly sync’d by seeing them in the git history all on one screen.

Response from developer

I'm glad GitSync is working well for you across your devices! Happy syncing :)

Apparently paying 19.99 once is not enough.

You want advanced sync? Pay more.

Perhaps consider including all the reasons you want to charge people for on one page so it’s not a whackamole game that people have to go through to figure out how much they should pay to use your product in full.

Also how do I do ‘git fetch’?

Can’t Install

I have no idea what’s going on but every time I try to install this app it just says can’t install try again later. I’ve restarted my phone and tried from different networks to no avail. I’m on an iPhone 15 Pro max, iOS 26.1 (23B85). Not sure how else to get in touch besides leaving a review.

Non functional

No local use, requires an Internet connection for a Google api requirement. Boo, Wendy. Boo.

Response from developer

Hey, the latest version of the app should fix this issue for you!

Finally an easy git solution!

I have been using obsidian and GitHub to sync between devices, i knew GitSync since android and is so happy to see it come to iOS and work well!!!!

Obsidian and GitHub has been such a pain figuring out how to work on it cross platform.
E-ink android died in low ram, iOS only has crazy expensive source control app or need to type in terminal and facing random filesystem issue every update.

Finally someone built and actively working on it, being open source is a cherry on the top, and even one-time payment premium. Nothing I could ask more.

Love it, it works well by the way.

Thanks so much for leaving a review and supporting the app, I really appreciate it!

Easy & powerful

Super easy to setup and really cool functionality. Currently using it for obsidian syncing, but can see how this could be useful for other side projects.
