Why:

Closes: #46880

"Applying a label" only covers the web UI. On GitHub Mobile the labels are behind a small info button, and neither this article nor the GitHub Mobile article says where.

What's being changed (if available, include any code snippets, screenshots, or gifs):

Adds an "Applying a label in GitHub Mobile" subsection (fpt and ghec only) under "Applying a label" in content/issues/using-labels-and-milestones-to-track-work/managing-labels.md, with five steps: open the issue, tap the info button next to Comment, tap Edit next to "Labels", add or remove labels, tap the check mark to save.

I confirmed the steps in GitHub Mobile on iOS in November 2026. I have not checked Android, so a reviewer may want to confirm Android matches or add a note.

Check off the following:

  • A subject matter expert (SME) has reviewed the technical accuracy of the content in this PR. In most cases, the author can be the SME. Open source contributions may require an SME review from GitHub staff.
  • The changes in this PR meet the docs fundamentals that are required for all content.
  • All CI checks are passing and the changes look good in the review environment.

What changed in this PR

Adds GitHub Mobile instructions for applying or removing issue labels in the existing label-management documentation.

Changes:

  • Adds an FPT/GHEC-only subsection for applying labels in GitHub Mobile.
  • Documents opening an issue, editing labels, adding or removing labels, and saving changes.
  • Uses product variables and Octicons consistent with the documentation format.
  • The flow was verified on iOS; Android parity should be confirmed or the scope should be limited to iOS.

This pull request is too complex or risky for automated approval.

File Description
