Do you have GitHub on your phone?

<introEmbed body={<> As a developer you're likely using GitHub all the time - it's one of the main repositories for code. When keeping a good work-life balance, it's not ideal for someone to be blocked by a pull request review that would take you 1 minute - just because you're out getting some fresh air. </>} />

Having GitHub on your mobile helps you unblock people quickly, and leave comments all while you’re on the go. Devs are more productive when they get regular breaks - so why not review pull requests in the park!

✅ Benefits of having GitHub on your phone

• Unblock others - Nothing is more frustrating for a developer than waiting hours or even days for a small PR approval or a comment on an issue
• Stay updated - It’s easier to fall behind on comments and issues if you’re only able to check GitHub from your computer
• Get notifications - Custom notification settings are easy to set
