iTea

iTea is a fast, native client for self-hosted Gitea (and Forgejo) instances. Browse repositories, manage issues and pull requests, and stay on top of notifications — all from your iPhone, iPad, or Mac. FEATURES • Browse repositories, file trees, and commit history • Read, create, and comment on issues • Track and review pull requests • Real-time notifications across every project you watch • Beautiful Markdown rendering for issues, PRs, and comments • Powerful search across repositories, issues, and pull requests • Universal app — one purchase covers iPhone, iPad, and Mac • Native SwiftUI throughout, optimised for each form factor • Secure: your access token lives only in the system Keychain PRIVACY iTea collects no data. There is no iTea-operated backend, no analytics, no third-party SDKs. Every request goes directly from your device to the Gitea (or Forgejo) server you configure. REQUIREMENTS • A self-hosted Gitea or Forgejo instance you have access to • A personal access token with read scopes for repositories, issues, and notifications (plus write scopes if you want to create issues or leave comments) ABOUT GITEA Gitea is a community-driven, open-source Git forge that you can self-host. Forgejo is a Gitea-compatible community fork. Both work seamlessly with iTea. Learn more at gitea.com.
Quick Issues

Quick Issues is a native iOS issue capture app for developers who ship across GitHub, GitLab, Gitea, Forgejo, Codeberg and self-hosted instances. Create issues in moments, organize everything in one unified inbox, and keep moving, even when you're offline. CAPTURE IN SECONDS Log a bug or an idea in a couple of seconds. No browser, no context switch. ONE INBOX FOR EVERY REPO Personal GitHub, work GitLab, a self-hosted Gitea or Forgejo instance, Codeberg. Connect them all and stop juggling tabs and logins. Forgejo and Codeberg are first-class, and the provider picker groups everything by hosting model, so connecting one is a couple of taps rather than a URL you have to look up. ASSIGN WITHOUT LEAVING THE APP Add or remove assignees on any issue, see who is on what from the list, and pull up everything assigned to you in a single view. LINKED PULL REQUESTS The pull requests that reference an issue show up on it automatically, colour-coded open, merged or closed. No tab switching to find out whether someone already fixed it. OFFLINE FIRST Capture on the subway, on a plane, on spotty hotel Wi-Fi. Quick Issues queues your changes and syncs them when you're back online. BUILT FOR iOS 26 Pure native Swift. Not a web wrapper, not Electron. Markdown bodies render properly, including tables, task lists and fenced code. Labels stay readable in both appearances, and a ten-thousand-issue repo scrolls as smoothly as a ten-issue one. Free: one account, unlimited repos. Pro: multiple accounts, sync across devices. Built by a solo developer who got tired of online-only apps on the subway.
