Hacker News (YC) App Reviews

Extremely fast and responsive. Links also open in text through readability so reading articles is very easy. Comment section is also very clear, and easy to see who is replying to whom. One suggestion to be able to log in and vote / comment which does not seem to be possible at the moment. However, if your purpose is solely to read the articles/comments, then this app is perfect.

Simple, awesome and powerful. Enought said

I use this often at night and appreciate the different color schemes. Great work!

clean, simple and an efficient way to browse HN

This is a very well made app.

First off, tapping directly on a link post shows it in some sort of simplified view, with a lot of the content stripped out. This causes me to have to tap on the link to see the actual webpage. Another issue is that swiping right to get to the post listing can be very difficult, and it can even get stuck.

This is the first app I used to read HN on my iPad and havent bothered looking for another one because its so well written. Every update has welcome refinements to the feature set. The only suggestions for improvement I have are 1) in Appearance settings, make the font size continuously scalable (similar to iBooks) rather than having discrete point sizes (I suffer from poor eyesight) and 2) support left and right swipe gestures for navigating especially for going back from the internal browser to the article (you have to press Done at the bottom left).

... but now that it has Pocket integration, its official a good app.

Ive tried a few HN apps. This one is the first one that didnt give me any issues.

A good way to browse my favorite news site. We need the popup preview with 3D Touch like Mail does.

Its easy to read !!

Easy to use love collapsing comments

It would be awesome if you add "save pocket" shortcut to share section

An option to open in Safari would be sweet, though.

I use it every day. Great readability of featured content, I love nightly reading mode & collapse threads

I use it every day

Best HN reader Ive ever seen

The best Hacker News app. Sometimes doesnt generate post preview showing instead "Something went terribly wrong".

…lacks a search feature though.

Nice news aggregator!
