Privacy Concerns
The platform can display user activity in a way that some may find intrusive, as it assembles and presents information from GitHub profiles openly.
Limited to Public Data
Gitstalk can only access and display information that is publicly available on GitHub profiles, limiting its insights to users without public repositories or activities.
Not an Official GitHub Tool
Since Gitstalk is not officially affiliated with GitHub, users might face reliability issues or discrepancies in data representation compared to direct GitHub sources.
Occasional Performance Issues
Some users might experience slow loading times or occasional downtimes, especially during peak usage hours, which can hinder the browsing experience.

User Engagement
The app enhances user engagement by allowing developers to track and visualize their GitHub contributions directly from their iOS devices. This provides a convenient way to remain productive and motivated.

Motivational Tracking
The app visualizes contribution data in a way that can motivate users to maintain or increase their activity levels on GitHub.
Open Source
Being open source, the app allows users to contribute to its development, customize it for personal use, or learn from its codebase.

Limited Functionality
The app may not offer the full range of features available on the GitHub web interface, which could limit its usefulness for more in-depth repository management tasks.
Privacy Concerns
Users need to log in with their GitHub credentials, which could raise privacy concerns if the app's handling of this data is not transparent or well-secured.
iOS Exclusivity
Since it's only available on iOS, Android users or those preferring cross-platform apps are unable to use it, limiting its potential audience.
Dependency on GitHub API
The app may experience limitations or issues related to changes in the GitHub API, potentially affecting its reliability and functionality.
