Issues is a fast, native app for GitHub Issues and GitHub Projects, on the Mac, iPhone and iPad. It is built like Mail and Notes, quick to drive from the keyboard, and everything stays in GitHub: teammates who don't use the app see the same issues and boards on github.com. PLAN AHEAD • Milestones: a board's next ones in the sidebar, each with its issues, how much is done and the day it's due • Epics: issues whose sub-issues are their work. On the board an epic's issues stand together under its name; drag the name to move them all • A roadmap: your epics as bars over the milestones, by month or quarter. Drag a bar to move an epic and its issues to another milestone • Your project's views from GitHub, such as "This week" or open bugs, as a board or a list, with filters you change in a click • Grouped by milestone or parent, a view shows how far each group is; a view of the current iteration shows its days left; a roadmap view is a timeline THE INBOX • What changed for you, from GitHub's notifications: who assigned you, mentioned you, commented, asked for your review or closed an issue you follow • Open one and the issue is right there, with what's new on top • Read, archive and snooze with a key or a swipe; github.com and all your devices agree ON THE MAC • Every project as a board or a list, My Issues with everything assigned to you, and every issue of your repositories, also those on no board • Drag issues to a new place, and shape the columns: add, rename, recolour and reorder them • Keyboard first: J and K move between issues, S, P, A and L change status, priority, assignee and labels, D sets the due date, and ⌘K opens a command palette for everything else • Select several issues and change them at once, or peek at one with Space • Sub-issues and blockers: put any issue under another, and mark what blocks what • Descriptions drawn as on GitHub, with tables, checklists that tick and Mermaid diagrams ON IPHONE AND IPAD • On iPhone, the Inbox, My Issues, your projects and search as tabs; on iPad, a sidebar and the board with drag and drop • Swipe right to mark an issue done, swipe left to assign it to yourself or delete it • Touch and hold an issue to change its status, priority, assignee, labels, milestone, parent or blockers, or drag it to a new place • Milestones and the roadmap, which is a timeline on iPad • On iPad with a keyboard, the Mac's keyboard shortcuts DUE DATES THAT REMIND YOU • Give an issue the day it is due: tomorrow, Friday, a day in the calendar, or typed as "in 3 days" • On the day, your Mac, iPhone and iPad remind you, with buttons to start the issue, mark it done or move it to tomorrow • The date is the project's Due date field on GitHub, so your team sees it too FAST AND RELIABLE • Every change shows at once and goes to GitHub in the background • Works offline: changes wait and are sent when you're back online • Careful with other people's work: when someone else changed the same text, nothing is overwritten PRIVATE • No account, no server, no tracking. Your login stays in your keychain and is only ever sent to GitHub. • Signed in on one of your devices? The others sign in by themselves through iCloud Keychain. In English, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Japanese, Korean and Chinese, following your device's language. Try it without an account: "Explore with Sample Data" opens two sample projects. Issues is open source: github.com/lukaskaibel/issues-for-github Issues is not affiliated with or endorsed by GitHub.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Issues at none against MySQL Mobile Client's 1. Issues also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). MySQL Mobile Client's advantage is chart position (#83 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (16.4 vs 27.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
