Project Management

Free

Pocket Code's entry point: create, import, clone and publish projects with built-in Git and full support for GitHub, GitLab and Bitbucket.

Create a project

From the dashboard, tap + and choose one of the options:

New project

Dialog with name field + template picker. If the name already exists, an automatic suffix is added: My App (2), My App (3)…

Clone repository

Pick GitHub, GitLab or Bitbucket, authorize with OAuth and choose one of your repos. Duplicate directories get a suffix: repo (2), repo (3)…

Import ZIP

Pick a .zip from storage. It is extracted with the file name (suffixes -2, -3 if it already exists).

Open local folder (SAF)

Uses Android's Storage Access Framework to link any device folder as a project.

Available templates

14 pre-configured templates across five categories. Each ships with initial files (relative paths → content) and a distinctive color:

Provider integration

OAuth 2.0 with PKCE authentication for the three main providers. Tokens are stored securely and resolved at operation time:

GitHub

GitLab

List and create projects

Bitbucket

List and create repos by workspace

Publish a local project

  1. 1Pick the service (GitHub, GitLab or Bitbucket) and authorize if you haven't yet.
  2. 2Choose the repository name and whether it should be private.
  3. 3Pocket Code creates the remote repo via API and configures the remote.
  4. 4If the project already had Git, the remote is added; if not, the repo is initialized with remote configured.
  5. 5Initial push, done — the project is online.

Only Premium gate: project count

The Free plan includes a limited number of active projects. Trying to create one beyond the limit shows an upgrade modal. All other operations (rename, import, open folder, full Git, clone and publish) are available on any plan.
