Materialistic - Hacker News for Android
Great way to browse, read hacker news.
Great Hacker News client!
Great app, intuitive and clean interface.
Love it — it's the best HackerNews reader
Great HN reader. Lean and mean.
Best hacker news in the market
Perfect.
Awesome
Works great other than two things: 1. The dropdown functionality in comment sections will break sometimes, seemingly after refreshing the comments section. 2. I wasn't able to save articles and read them when offline.
Horrible interface. You have to slide an item to vote it up, but then it doesn't indicate which stories you've already voted up or not. Forces you to load the article before going to comments. Just go to the website and save it to the desktop. Much simpler interface.
The best one yet, IMO. But surfing through the comments is full of lags. The app even goes unresponsive for a few milliseconds while the comments load. I would love to see the comments loading mechanism from "Relay for Reddit" here.
Don't know if you can make WebView in article Tab to use recent chrome engine because content sometimes differs from tab to launched from 'article link' edit: yes, looks like some stuff works different between fullscreen tab and WebView inside app. today's news: "Working with time in Postgres" don't load iframes with Twitter/FB buttons and fullscreen tab does. probably can't do anything about it. greets
I think everyone agrees this is the best Android app for HN. However there are times when comments don't fold properly, and more importantly there's no way to view comments to one's comments. On the HN website you can see your comments' points and replies and it's a practical way to see what discussions have extended. I'd give 5 stars if there was a more practical way to know about replies (I don't even really care about notifications or points).
This app is an amazing window into the Hacker News community - and provides unparalleled browsing features. After getting used to its UX design - I find that I really appreciate how well it is crafted more and more. Plus it is open source - thanks hidroh! - and the github repository includes a most awesome test suite for the app - a sign of deep professionalism. Very impressive!!
Love it, makes reading hn a pleasure. Im especially fond of the dark theme. The only problem I see is that sometimes collapsing threads doesn't work and you're left with a thread only half collapsed.
Really great! Pumpkin Reader has been falling down a bunch and this manages to offer pdf render duty right where it stays flooooowing.
The best - and more or less only maintained HN client. Started crashing a lot recently, though.
Simply the best HN reader app out there. Lots of options and customizations, simple and clear UI, account handling and a lot more. Kudos to the devs behind it!
Simply the best Hacker News app out there at this moment. It's intuitive, easy to use, powerful, and customizable. And it's also open-source!
Crashes constantly. It's a shame because it's well designed.
Crashes constantly while viewing comments, unusable
Constant crashing on Moto G4 Play XT1607
It crashes every 5 minutes!
Keeps crashing while loading comments.
This is superb app by far for hacker news! The widget as well is impressive with multiple options to configure.
Works very well, but background refreshes and some intelligent notification system would be welcome additions.
Hacker News was already great but this is definitely my favorite way to browse it.
Best hacker news client so far, really enjoy it.
Works great, thank you for your hard work.
The best!
Great interface
Simple and effective
cool
Dark theme would be nice, but very pleased to see the recent addition of in-app PDF support. All in all, a great app.
Great way to browse and read Hacker News
Hands down the absolute best HN reader you'll ever find.
Really will executed. Very smooth and user friendly.
Probably the most well designed Android app I've ever used. Fits perfectly with Google's material design mandate. Implements all Android-specific features that are incredibly useful but for some reason other developers never bother with. Tons of user options. If I ever want to do something, I know i just have to find out how - I skip wondering IF the developers have thought of the functionality.
When I have an idle minute, I just check the news here, and it's always reliable: even with a slow mobile connection :)
