When you view a JIRA page on a mobile device, such as an iPhone or an Android phone, JIRA will display an optimised version of the page. JIRA chooses the mobile or desktop interface based on your device.

The JIRA mobile interface is designed for viewing and interacting with issues on the go. If you need full access to JIRA, you can always switch to the JIRA desktop interface via the mobile menu

What can you do in JIRA on a mobile device?

The JIRA mobile interface has been designed to give users quick access to their issues on the go. This includes;

• Viewing issues, comments, attachments, issue links and your favourite filters.
• Performing basic operations like adding comments (including mentions and restrictions), watching or voting on issues and assigning issues to users.

If you need to create or modify issues on the go, you can still do so by switching to the desktop interface via the mobile menu

Do I need to install an app to view JIRA on a mobile device?

Yes, just enter the URL of your JIRA Cloud site in your mobile web browser.

Why can't I view my custom field in JIRA on my mobile?

The JIRA Mobile interface will show custom fields in the issue details screen. Custom fields that have their own custom field renderer will not display on the JIRA Mobile interface. You will need to switch to the desktop interface to view these fields.
