Great app

Sea turtle tom

Super simple, does everything you need. Makes reading HN on the iPhone easy


My favorite HN reader

OmoPlataSweep

Love everything about this app. The comments are what makes HN and this app organizes them nicely. I know it's probably an API thing but it would be nice to be able to post comments from inside the app.


Beautiful work!

Great job. Love the defaults.


Broken

dahbearz

Don't get this. It's super broken and not updated often.


Used to be good

SynVisions

In the latest version of this app the open in Safari button doesn't work. This is essential because so many pages don't render properly in the built in browser.


Would pay for it

JohnnyUn1

Forget the negative Nancy's, this works great! I would easily pay a buck for it.


Great, with one complaint

Shoeboxam

I greatly prefer reading articles with the normal page rendering, and would prefer they be presented that way by default. On any given HN article, everything from the page formatting, to the labels, the icons, the font, etc give a mental frame to what I'm reading. Taking that all away via "Readability" is disorienting. I'd really appreciate an option to choose the default page renderer. Aaand, I'd gladly pay for it.


Just ok

kyledr

I often have to tap the back button 2-6 times before it goes back to the list page. Seems like a non-native app.


Best HN app

LeafFanatic

This is the best Hacker News reader out there! Trust me because I've downloaded all 15 of them.


Difficult to read

The colors/text make this an unpleasant/headache inducing reading experience. The developer should consult with a designer.
