GitHub for Android and IOS lets you move work forward wherever you are. Stay in touch with your team, triage issues, and even merge, right from the app.
Thanks for sharing! We've been hard at work building this first version of GitHub to Android and iOS. I'm really excited to start sharing the app and getting your feedback. We're focusing the first version of the app heavily on collaboration with peers on Issues & Pull Requests, and on triage of notifications. Happy to answer any questions you might have!
@_ryannystrom Between IGListKit and GitHawk, you've made some really cool and impactful contributions to the dev community. Thanks for your work Ryan, it's been really cool watching your story.

Is the app itself open source? What kind of functionality is in the beta (I have Android so can't try out the iOS version)? And most importantly, is there a dark mode? 😊
@stekoshy Android is also in beta, you can signup for that too

The Software engineering team at Github consist of Great engineers and Designers... I wouldn't expect anything less from them. Although I haven't use the app, am sure people would love it!
I guess I got used to GitHub's mobile web UI but that's so amazing to be able to switch to a native app. Especially that I find it very useful to be able to access Pull Requests via mobile devices (both tablets and phones). 😍
I was excited to see this - but I just ended up "signing up" for beta and not trying the product. Was expecting that a launched product is actually a launched product that you could try.

I always opened github website on browser then left bunch of tabs opened,also tried way too many github clients app but some functions and ui overall are still lacking, so glad to see the official GitHub application project on both android and iOS , will be waiting for the beta launch and test them out (*•̀ᴗ•́*)و ̑̑
@rrhoover yeah, I'm skeptical that this will take off... an iPad is basically a desktop these days so I don't really count that.

@rrhoover@chrismessina I think it will take off, especially as we are getting cheaper mobile devices and users in emerging economies are being more mobile.
@rrhoover@chrismessina@o_prime I think it'll take off too, not necessarily for the coding-aspect, but for open source maintainers. Being able to review pull requests and issues when you're aware from your computer is key.
This might seem minuscule, but will greatly improve the quality of life for everyone who maintains open source software. A lot of those maintainers feel like they're chained to their computer, as so many high profile clients rely on it working and fixes to be merged quickly.
