What users say about GitHub
From the 69 most recent App Store reviews in the US.
Users appreciate the app's utility for on-the-go code management and PR reviews, but are frustrated by significant UI regressions and Copilot instability. Complaints focus heavily on broken MFA flows, unintuitive navigation compared to the web version, and persistent bugs in AI features.
Mixed but leaning positive (68% of recent reviews give 4–5 stars). People like it for being easy to use, and being useful. The main complaints are about login and account problems, and crashes and bugs.
What people like
- Ease of use: “Easy to use and well integrated”
- Useful: “Easy to understand very user friendly highly recommend”
- Features & content: “Please keep adding web features to iOS app!”
Common complaints
- Login & account: “Illegally accessing account after removing”
- Crashes & bugs: “GitHub doesn’t work in my ChatGPT check”
- Features & content: “This is a plea to the developers to revamp this feature to make it more useful”
- Ease of use: “Basically the UI isn’t as intuitive as the site or as it should be”
