Any specific app you would recommend?

View on HN

I use Octal on iOS/iPhone

+1 to Octal being fantastic

On iOS, HACK is my favorite of the several I've tried: https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/hack-for-hacker-news-reader/id...

There's an Android version as well: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pranapps.h...

The pain point for me with Hack is that the vibrations need the pro version to close (or literally anything in the settings).

Thank you — I knew it was free but didn't recall that I'd done the in-app "Premium" purchase. I'd still recommend it for anyone open to non-free (as in beer and/or freedom) apps.

I would recommend Hacki: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jiaqifeng....

It's the most featureful FOSS Android app for HN, it's UI is a breeze to navigate too (if you enable swipe gestures from the tiny settings!).

I'm using Harmonic for Android. Not sure if it's available for iOS. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.simon.harm...

Just installed, thank you.

I'm trying Harmonic right now and it is really lacking in features, sure, the Material You is great but I can't edit my comments or see how many votes a comment/post has (and there is no Inbox?!).

Love the browser concept in it though, never seen anything like it before.

if you're on android materialistic is p good.

Harmonic on Android is pretty good

Not available on Github or Fdroid.

I would recommend taking a look for yourself. If I search the App Store for “Hacker News” I see no less than a dozen options. Shouldn’t take more than a minute to look at them and evaluate which one would be best for your needs.

I trust people here more than I trust the App Store algos though.
