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](/pomodoro) - 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](/github-notifications)** - Custom notification settings are easy to set | ||
|
||
### GitHub Contributions Widget | ||

||

* Tap and hold the home screen until the icons jiggle | ||
* Tap the “+” icon in the top-left corner and search for “GitHub” | ||
* Choose the GitHub contributions widget and place it on the home screen | ||
|
||
2. **Android**: | ||
