We are extremely pleased to announce the initial release of the GitHub Android App available on Google Play. The app is free to download and you can also browse the code from the newly open sourced repository.
This release includes support for working with Issues and Gists as well as an integrated news feed for keeping up to date with all your organizations, friends, and repositories.
The app features a dashboard for quick access to all your created, watched, and assigned issues so you can always stay connected with the discussion and progress. You can also view and bookmark any repository’s issue list with configurable filters for labels, milestones, and assignees.
Head over to the github/android repository to see exactly how the app was built, report any feature requests or issues, and stay up to date as development of the app continues.
