Now GitHub mobile is receiving an update that bumps the service up to version 1.2 and adds a few interesting changes. One of the new tools is improved pull requests on GitHub. This includes support for marking files as viewed, deleting, and collapsing files. Furthermore, image, PDF, and markdown files will now render when selected. Elsewhere, GitHub mobile now has smoother performance when comments are being typed. Badges for organizations on profiles will now link directly back to the connected organization.

GitHub Mobile
With the mobile apps, users of the Microsoft-owned code repository service can manage their projects on mobile devices. Furthermore, developers can provide feedback, respond to comments, organize tasks, and review pull requests. It is also possible to view code but that as far as the app takes it in terms of code management. You won’t be able to edit code on the app, at least not yet. You can check out the GitHub mobile app from Google Play or App Store.
