2.3 Search

In the Home page, click the profile picture in the upper left corner to enter the “personal Home page.”

2.5 Setting

“Personal home page”, the upper right corner of the “small gear” is the entrance to the setting page, you can set push and theme.

Tips: I failed to test the push successfully. There is an extra item called App Icon in iOS. You can set the style of App Icon

2.6 Browsing code

Three, use feeling

Advantages:

  1. The software is small and fast
  2. The basic function is complete, with comment reply function
  3. Anyway, I don’t need a bike

Disadvantages:

  1. Do not hang agent service is unstable, often do not brush out of the situation
  2. Code browsing is highlighted only
  3. No information flow, hot spots, etc
  4. The sharing feature is primitive: it’s just a link after sharing

There are too few functions, and domestic Internet access is too unstable, but it is more convenient than web access. There is still a long way to go for the official GitHub App, so look forward to the next update!
