Hackerful - YCombinator's Hacker News Reader Reviews

Nice

Life in Truth

Really good app, but the non-ad version is a little costly for me. This is still worth dealing with the ads.

The only free usable Hacker News app so far

Thomas Shaddox

This is the first and only Hacker News iOS app I've discovered that supports logging in, commenting, and seeing new replies to your comments.

i really like this app for catching up on HN, but one great improvement would be offline capabilities. caching recent articles or even being able save them locally would be wonderful. i know this is no small task, but it would further separate this app from the rest. i would even pay for that feature as an addon. ;) keep up the good work

Great app

Carlito's Way All Day

I like it , it works, you should get it.

Best app to read Hackernews

ozkanaltuner

Both functional and beautiful. I wanted to buy and support the developer, but $4.99 too much, sorry

Can't login

LeafFanatic

Paid to unlock full functionality but I can't even login. Emailed the developer several times and no response.

Pretty good

But the currently non-functional login hurts its overall rating.

Server error when logging in

Juice It Up

It's good for reading but I can't login. It says server error every time I try. iPhone 5. iOS 6.1.4

Mediocre

NullSoldier

This is unfortunately the best hacker news app which is a shame because its mediocre at best. The reader is just a web page so there's no full screen reading mode like reddit blue and considering the entire purpose is to read that is awful. Also logging in will forever give me a "server error".

Worth it

Fausto Cheder

Nothing beats this app for reading Hacker News. Totally worth it.
