Access Git repositories on the go. Clone, edit, commit and push while allowing other apps access to repositories. Git is a important part of our work-life and iOS can take part in this. The ability to commit even when offline has added utility on a device that moves in and out of network coverage. Cloning repositories gets you a local copy on your iOS device with commits for all branches. You can browse the content from within the app and make changes. Other applications supporting the Files app, WebDAV or x-callback-url has access to these files. Changes made can be committed and the commits can in turn be pushed back to the remote. The idea of doing significant programming on iOS might seem far fetched when you are used to a large screen, a physical keyboard and a full IDE. But just as it turned out that not every email is serious prose, then not everything that goes on in Git is significant programming. Sometimes you just want to update a TODO file or make adjustments to your Jekyll site. Sometimes you just need to add a file the designer sent after hours. If you ever make reminders about small things to do with the code-base, then you should give Working Copy a try. You will spend less time moving stuff around and you will get much better commit messages when you write them for fixes that are still fresh in your mind. You won't be leaving your computer behind any time soon, but sometimes it is faster to just fix things with the device in your hand. When you do need to perform real work on iOS, Working Copy is a powerful tool. Editor has syntax highlighting for more than 50 programming languages and a built-in color picker. Preview images, Markdown and HTML files with a Javascript console pointing to errors in your code. Create new branches and merge or rebase them back, with a brilliant merge-tool for handling conflicts. If you need to automate your work there are Working Copy actions in the Shortcuts app for most operations. Even if you never edit a line of code on iOS, Working Copy is a great companion for reviewing and discussing code. Repositories are cross indexed and with powerful fuzzy search you can quickly jump from a symbol to the declaration or reverse from the declaration to all usages. A graph of your commits lets you zoom out for a overview of the commit tree or zoom in for specifics about each commit, with speed and beauty you won’t find in desktop Git applications. Review the changes your files have gone through with a diff viewer that is great for text and images. There is even hex-dump mode for that obscure occasion. Working Copy is a free download but you need to unlock pro features such as the ability to push commits and manage more than 5 repositories. There is no venture capital, large company or ads funding development and your support through in-app purchase directly sustains development. Try out pro features with a 10 day free trial. When you pay to unlock you get permanent access to all pro features at the time of purchase as well as any added the next year. When 12 months have passed you keep all existing pro features but any new ones introduced are locked until you renew your unlock.

Rune Mobile is a native Kubernetes client for iPhone and iPad, built for developers, platform engineers, DevOps teams and SREs who need to stay close to their clusters even when they are away from the desk. When you are on the go, Rune helps you keep an eye on cluster health, inspect workloads, check logs, review YAML, follow events and understand permission or kubeconfig issues without opening a laptop. It gives you a focused mobile Kubernetes workflow for the moments when you need quick context, fast troubleshooting and safe access from your phone or tablet. Rune Mobile is designed to complement kubectl, k9s and the Rune desktop app. It is not a cloud dashboard, not a telemetry client and not a heavy platform portal. It is a native mobile Kubernetes app for practical cluster operations, built around speed, clarity and secure handling of cluster access. Use Rune Mobile to switch contexts and namespaces, inspect resources, view YAML, check events, search logs, open pod exec workflows and debug auth or RBAC issues with Auth Doctor. The interface is built for iPhone and iPad, with compact navigation, readable resource details and operator-focused workflows that make sense on a mobile screen. Features: • Kubernetes access from iPhone and iPad • Fast context and namespace switching • Namespace favorites and manual namespace entry • Pods, Deployments, StatefulSets, DaemonSets, Jobs, CronJobs, Services, Ingresses, ConfigMaps, Secrets, Nodes, PVCs, StorageClasses, RBAC resources, Events and Helm releases • Cluster overview with unhealthy workloads, resource counts and incident signals • Pod logs with search, line presets, previous logs, time filters and container selection • YAML viewing with syntax diagnostics and validation feedback • Describe output with searchable mobile text surfaces • Pod exec and terminal workflows with safe input handling • Auth Doctor for kubeconfig, context, namespace, API transport, RBAC, logs and exec checks • Cloud and kubeconfig import workflows • Support for common Kubernetes environments including EKS, AKS, GKE, Rancher, DigitalOcean DOKS, Minikube, kind, k3d, K3s, Docker Desktop and OrbStack • Read-only mode and safer mobile operation defaults • Local write audit entries • Redaction for sensitive values in diagnostics, previews, logs and exports • No analytics, tracking, advertising, telemetry or Rune cloud backend Why Rune Mobile? Kubernetes work does not only happen at a desk. Sometimes you need to check a crashing pod while commuting, verify a rollout from a meeting room, inspect logs while away from your workstation or understand whether a cluster issue needs immediate attention. Rune Mobile keeps your Kubernetes clusters close. You can quickly open the app, check what is unhealthy, inspect the relevant pod or deployment, review logs, look at YAML, check events and decide what to do next. Rune Mobile is especially useful when you want to: • monitor Kubernetes clusters while away from your desk • quickly check pods, deployments, services and events • inspect logs from iPhone or iPad • debug kubeconfig, auth and RBAC problems • verify cluster state before escalating an incident • keep production context visible before acting • use a native mobile Kubernetes client instead of a heavy web dashboard • stay connected to your Kubernetes workflow without carrying a laptop everywhere Rune Mobile keeps the workflow local and privacy-focused. There is no cloud account, no telemetry, no tracking, no ads and no Rune backend. One-time purchase. No subscription.
