About:
Gitify is a menu bar utility that aggregates GitHub notifications into a centralized, non-intrusive interface. It allows developers to stay updated on pull requests, issues, and mentions without constantly checking the web interface. The tool supports multiple accounts and offers customizable filters to manage notification overload.
Key Features:
  • Real-time GitHub notification syncing
  • Support for multiple GitHub accounts
  • Native macOS and Windows menu bar integration
  • Customizable filters and mute options
  • Unread indicators and quick actions
Use Cases:
  • Managing GitHub notifications across multiple repositories without leaving the terminal or IDE
  • Reducing context switching by monitoring PR reviews and issue mentions from the menu bar
  • Filtering out noise from active participation vs. repository activity
Alternatives:
  • GitHub Notifications – Web-based only, lacks native desktop integration and multi-account support
  • Octobox – Web-based notification manager with thread management, but requires browser access
