What is it?
Gitify is a cross-platform menu bar and tray app for macOS, Windows and Linux that collects notifications from Git hosting platforms into a single list. It lets you keep track of issues, pull requests and other activity without opening each forge in a browser.
The app works with GitHub Cloud, GitHub Enterprise, Gitea, Forgejo, Codeberg, Bitbucket Cloud and GitLab, and you can sign in to several accounts at once. Depending on the forge, you can mark notifications as read, mark them as done, or unsubscribe directly from the app. Filters and themes are configurable.
Gitify uses a forge adapter pattern, so support for additional platforms can be added as separate adapters. Azure DevOps and Gerrit are listed as under consideration.
