Quick Issues

Read full description

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.

Fjord Mobile is a Forgejo and Gitea client for iPhone and iPad. Review pull requests, triage issues, watch your CI, and merge, from anywhere. Connect free with a personal access token; a Fjord account is optional. WHAT YOU CAN DO - Review pull requests: conversation, timeline, diffs, changed files, CI status, approve or request changes, and merge. - Open pull requests and create and edit issues. Comment, react, label, assign, and manage reviewers. - Triage your notification inbox, with optional push for your own activity. - Run CI, not just watch it: browse Actions runs across your repositories, read a failed job's log, cancel a run or start one with your own inputs, and download artifacts. - Browse repositories, code, commits, branches, releases, and milestones. Edit a file and commit it to a branch for a quick fix. - Add Home Screen widgets: build status, open PR count, review requests, your contribution graph, and runner queue. SIGN IN - Connect directly to your own self-hosted Forgejo instance with a personal access token, no account required. Tokens are stored only in the device Keychain. - Or, optionally, sign in with a Fjord account to add push notifications and switch between your instances and connected forges without signing out. FREE AND MOBILE PRO - Free: connect any Forgejo server, add several servers and accounts, browse, and review, comment on and merge pull requests. Actions and their logs, push notifications, the contribution widget, reading pull requests offline and a few offline reviews are free as well. - Mobile Pro is a one-time purchase. It adds the Review Queue, which walks you through the pull requests waiting on your review one after another, by voice if you like on iOS 26; Needs You, the pull requests waiting on you, on Home, in a widget and when you ask Siri; a review assistant on devices with Apple Intelligence, which sums up what changed since your review and drafts comments without anything leaving the device; and Live Activities for runs. Also included: advanced notification actions, multi-line and block comments, offline review beyond the free allowance, and the iPad review workstation, where you comment and finish reviews with keyboard commands from its Review menu. - Pencil review (Mobile Pro): On iPad with Apple Pencil, write over a line to comment on it, drag to select lines, and keep private ink notes that never leave the device. - Restore Purchases is in Settings. Native on iPhone and iPad. No ads, and no cross-app tracking: nothing is shared with data brokers or used to follow you across apps and sites. Crash diagnostics are on by default and can be turned off in Settings. Fjord also sends product analytics: app usage events such as the app opening, a saved sign-in resuming, review activity, Forge Health, Mobile Pro paywall and purchase events, and once-a-day feature use. Events carry your account identifier if you are signed in with a Fjord Account and Fjord does not ask first, and otherwise a random identifier created on the device, which changes every month where Fjord asks first. They never include repository names, server addresses, usernames, pull request titles, file contents or text you write. If your device country or App Store country is in the EU, the EEA, the UK or Switzerland, or cannot be determined, Fjord asks before sending any analytics; elsewhere analytics is on until you turn it off in Settings, which also deletes the device identifier and anything not yet sent. Fjord is a third-party client for self-hosted Git forges. Compatible with Forgejo servers and other compatible installations, including Gitea. Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Forgejo, Codeberg, Gitea, or any server operator.
