Comments on ForkHub for GitHub for Android

★★★★★ Very useful in keeping you informed about your repos. It's not a replacement for the GitHub website of course. I use it for many years to keep track of commits my teammates push, comment on issues etc. Simpel and stable app with no ads or excessive permissions.

★★★★★ Nice app for browsing and checking projects on GitHub. Love it.

★★★★★ You really rock! I do a lot of reviewing of my repos via your app, especially reorganizing some issues into milestones. But I would love to sort issues by milestones so that they show up sorted in collapsible milestone lists. That would help me to scroll through my milestones one after the other to get an overview of them all. Other than that, everything works really well! Thank you!

★★☆☆☆ Unfortunately couldn't get by the login screen using a token I generated myself: just kept getting a message along the lines of "please enter a valid username and password"

★★☆☆☆ To the peepholes...who saved files of mines and took all my rel I identify ... don't you think you got what you want. I don't think its cool 4 2 of you to keep browsing around when pretty much I have nothing for you to keep taking from me.4 2 of you build you program and move on... the world is better with open arm and a big bundle of joy.

★★☆☆☆ Slow and clunky. Direct web access is cleaner and more intuitive. Just getting to any project's readme. Md is clicky and slow. The app is missing lots of features natively found on the web interface like for instance pull requests, releases and issues.
