Gitify for MAC
Free, open-source Mac app that brings your GitHub, GitLab and other Git notifications to the menu bar, with filters and themes.
Gitify Overview
Gitify brings your Git notifications to the Mac menu bar. Instead of keeping a browser tab open, you see new issues, pull requests, reviews, releases and mentions in a small window that opens from the menu bar, and you can open them, mark them as read or done, or unsubscribe from there. It works with GitHub, including GitHub Enterprise, and with other Git platforms such as GitLab, Gitea, Forgejo, Codeberg and Bitbucket Cloud, and you can sign in to several accounts at once. Filters, settings and themes let you see only what matters to you.
Gitify is free and open source under the MIT license, made by the Gitify team and contributors. It is also available for Windows and Linux. Version 7.10.0 is a universal app for Apple Silicon and Intel Macs and needs macOS 13 or later.
