# Features of GitHub Mobile
> GitHub Mobile lets developers review code, manage issues and pull requests, make quick edits, triage notifications, and approve secure sign-ins from iOS and Android devices
GitHub Mobile is the official first-party app for iOS and Android that brings core repository workflows to your phone. It helps developers stay productive and maintain account security away from a workstation, enabling timely code review, issue triage, and secure sign-ins from anywhere.
What can you do with GitHub Mobile?
* Search and discover
* Quickly search for users, repositories, issues, or pull requests and jump to the exact resource you need.
* Participate in issues and pull requests
* Read, comment, and participate in conversations on issues and pull requests.
* Leave reviews (approve, request changes, or comment).
* Merge pull requests when you have the appropriate permissions.
* Make quick, targeted code changes
* Edit files directly in a pull request to fix typos, update documentation, or apply small code fixes without switching to a desktop environment.
* Manage notifications and your inbox
* Filter and triage notifications, mute noisy threads, or mark items as read while on the go so you focus on what matters most.
You can configure push notifications to receive instant alerts when you’re mentioned, when CI fails, or when other important events occur in your repositories.
Use GitHub Mobile to receive sign-in approvals and two-factor authentication prompts directly on your device. Register and verify your device under your account security settings to enable Mobile for authentication approvals.
* Account security and sign-in verification
* Approve sign-ins and respond to two-factor authentication (2FA) prompts from your phone, and confirm suspicious sign-in attempts to keep your account secure.
* Work-life balance features
* Set custom quiet hours or working hours for push notifications so alerts are delivered only during times you choose.
