13 Positive User Reviews for HACK for YC Hacker News Reader
Very solid
This is a great app, that has been continually updated. I like the amount of customization that is available.
I do think it would benefit from being a little more opinionated in some of its UI choices but overall sits next to Apollo for me as a great indie client for a site I use a lot.
This is a great app.
Delightfully streamlined while also being extremely customizable. This app is such a joy to use.
excellent, simple, clean

The battle ground
Just made the switch to this and happy
I’ve been lurking HN for over a decade now and I’d been using one of the older iOS apps for it. It was simple enough. But this app is significantly better, it feels more like it’s “mine” because of the customisations. After lurking for so long, I find this app motivates me to contribute. Totally worth upgrading to pro, even if you don’t need the features. I appreciate the devs 🤓
The best HackerNews App, period
Feels modern, but keeps the simple vibe of the site. My favorite by far.
The best iOS HN client
Only app I’ve reviewed. This one is good. It’s really clean, intuitive, & full featured, and it is ad free. Honestly this is how iOS apps should be. Absolutely an upgrade to the website on a mobile device. EDIT. I have been reading HN more lately, and I thought “this app is great, it feels wrong not to buy it considering how much I use it.” So I went to purchase it, and… I ALREADY BOUGHT IT some time ago. Yes people, it is that good.
Best app
I love your app, gr8, r8 8/8.
The best HN client
I collected all HN clients over the years and nothing get close to HACK.
If I may ask, the only addition that would make it even better is highlighting text so that I could export elements to Readwise.
I use it every day
I love this app. I use it every day.
Hitting all the right notes
Good customizability and small details for ease of use. Just the right style of presentation for getting my information diet from HN. The app author is also very responsive to bug/feature feedback. Strongly recommended!
Would give 6 stars if I could
The most comprehensive Hacker News reader on iOS. If you pay the one-time premium fee, you quite literally own this app, and can change it to your liking. Everything is customizable. Also, FILTERS! So tired of accidentally clicking nytimes.com/bloomberg.com/etc. links when I know they're just gonna paywall me. In the settings, you can add domain filters so certain site's won't even pop up!
Already know a lot of this before published
I need the MIT people to get ahold of me about Stanford cuz I am [0]
