USCIS just gave my green card tracker app direct API access — looking for beta testers before App Store launch next week.
I'm an iOS and Android developer (and recently received by Green Card). Last year I built an app for myself to stop refreshing the USCIS website every morning. It grew. After several months of back-and-forth with USCIS on our privacy and data handling, they officially granted direct API access to the app this month — which means it now gets case updates the moment USCIS records them and pushes them to your phone.
I'm planning to release on the App Store next week and would love honest feedback from real users before that. Things like: does it actually help, what's confusing, what's missing.
A few principles I built it around:
No account, no sign-in
Documents stay on your phone, never uploaded
Only your receipt number is sent to our backend (so we can poll USCIS update for you)
No ads, no analytics, no tracking

Happy to answer anything. Thanks 🙏
