RepoRoute
Browse & Manage Git Repos
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Browse, clone, edit, and push GitHub repos, right from your iPhone or iPad. Real git. Real syntax highlighting. No Mac required.
RepoRoute brings your GitHub repositories to your iPhone and iPad — browse, search, clone, edit, commit, and push without ever touching a Mac.
BROWSE & SEARCH
• See all your GitHub repositories across multiple linked accounts
• Filter by name or language; sort by name, stars, or last updated
• Tap any repo to see its full metadata, branch list, and README
CLONE ON DEVICE
• Real git clones powered by libgit2 — not a download, an actual git repository
• Real-time progress: bytes transferred, object count, and estimated time remaining
• Free tier clones to the app's Documents folder
• Premium upgrade unlocks cloning to any folder — iCloud Drive, external storage, or anywhere the Files app can reach
EDIT, COMMIT & PUSH
• Full syntax-highlighted file editor powered by tree-sitter (Swift, JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, Markdown, JSON, YAML, Rust, Go, C, C++, Ruby, SQL, HTML, CSS, SCSS, and more)
• Stage all changes, write a commit message, and push — all from your device
• Git status badges show which files are modified, added, or deleted
BRANCH MANAGEMENT
• View all local branches with the current branch highlighted
• Create a new branch from HEAD with one tap — optionally push to remote immediately
• Switch branches directly from the app
• Delete local and remote branches (remote deletion requires confirmation)
• Tap "Open Pull Request" to jump to GitHub in Safari and finish the PR flow
WIDGETS
• Home Screen widgets (small, medium, large) showing your most recent clone, repo activity, and last commit info
• Lock Screen / StandBy widget with the latest repo name and commit time
• All widgets deep-link back into the app
AUTHENTICATION
• Sign in with GitHub via OAuth 2.0 (PKCE)
• Or paste a Personal Access Token — your choice
• Tokens stored exclusively in the iOS Keychain — never logged, synced, or shared
• Link multiple GitHub accounts
PREMIUM — $10.99 one-time or $2.99/year
• Unlock the custom clone destination folder picker
• One purchase covers all your devices via Family Sharing
GitLab support is coming in a future update.
