A browser extension for Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Opera, and Brave that displays GitHub notification counts in the toolbar and shows desktop notifications. It polls GitHub every minute, supports filtering by repository, and works with GitHub Enterprise.
Use cases
- get notified of new github notifications in my browser
- show unread github notification count on toolbar icon
- receive desktop notifications for github issues and PRs
- filter github notifications by repository
- github notifications for github enterprise instance
- only show notifications for issues I participate in
When to choose
- you want lightweight GitHub notification alerts without keeping GitHub open
- you use Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Opera, or Brave
- you need GitHub Enterprise support
- you want per-repository notification filtering
When to avoid
- you need fine-grained personal access token support (only classic tokens work)
- you want a full GitHub client rather than just notifications
- you need notifications outside the browser
