Notifications That Follow Your Workflow
GitHub Mobile now pushes alerts beyond direct mentions. You’ll be notified when you’re requested to review a pull request, assigned a task, or asked to approve a deployment for a protected environment. To cut down on unnecessary pings, team mentions and team review requests are excluded from these new push types by default. You can switch them on individually from the app’s settings if you want finer-grained control over what reaches your lock screen.
Pause the Noise With Working Hours
A new push notification schedule called Working Hours lets you define a time window when notifications are suppressed. Whether you’re focusing on a side project after hours or simply don’t want work interruptions while away, you can set this pause period directly from in-app settings. That way, the app respects your boundaries as much as your attention.
Repository-Level Watch Customization on Mobile
You can now adjust watch settings for individual repositories from your phone, matching the browser experience. Tap the Watch button on a repo to opt in or out of specific notification actions, so you only receive inbox updates that matter to you. It is a straightforward way to trim the signal-to-noise ratio without leaving the mobile app.
Native Release Viewing
Releases are finally viewable in the mobile app. Navigate to a repository to check the latest version and download releases directly to your device. This removes the need to switch back to a browser for release updates.
GitHub Mobile is available on iOS now, with Android rolling out this week. The app supports individual plans, Team, Enterprise Cloud, and Enterprise Server. You can pick it up from the App Store or Google Play.
