Issues on iPhone X , especially since 11.3

Nice app, but unfortunately a pain to use due to common bugs. Two things in particular happen every time I use this app: - back button collapses into iPhone X’s horns and is no longer can be used. - (since iOS 11.3) app locks up and no longer responds to input Both these need me to cycle the app, context switching me and pretty much mean I’ve switched from this app.


Save To Pocket Not Implemented

Getting a 501 when trying to Save to Pocket


Frustrating controls

Swiping behavior is very flaky and frustrating. While scrolling it seems to register taps in intermediate locations.


Great app!

Great app, have used it everyday. Would definitely pay for!


Visually nice, otherwise lacking

MC Brevity

Commenting feature is terrible and drains battery faster than it should. However, theme customization is nice and text rendering from articles is nice.


No iPhone X support

Excited when I saw an update finally, but still no iPhone X support.


Great app, Iphone X support please! :)

I would gladly pay for this app, some improvements that come to mind: -iphone X support -when sharing an article, it doesn't display the title in messages, messenger, etc, unlike when sharing a link directly to hacker news


Just a heads up

Attempting to view comments on iPad while in split view crashes the app. It seems that if the app has enough room to show the comments and list of submissions it works fine.


thanks

Best HN app!

So glad to see this application is getting some attention from the developers. I use this app and it’s web counterpart to browser Hacker News everyday. It’s the best HN app I’ve been able to find so far and I hope it stays around for a while!
