Show HN: HackTheNews – iOS 26 Liquid Glass Hacker News Client with AI Summaries (apps.apple.com)

I've been maintaining HackTheNews (a native iOS client for Hacker News) for a while now, and with iOS 26 dropping its new "Liquid Glass" design language, I couldn't resist doing a full visual overhaul.

What's new: - Complete redesign using iOS 26's Liquid Glass materials - Translucent, layered UI that adapts to your wallpaper - New glass-style navigation and tab bars - Refined typography and spacing for the new aesthetic

Implementation notes for fellow iOS devs: - Used the new `.glassEffect()` modifiers throughout - Had to rethink some hierarchy decisions – Liquid Glass works best with fewer nested containers

The before/after difference is pretty striking. Happy to share more technical details if anyone's curious about adopting Liquid Glass in their own apps.

Would love to hear your feedback – especially from fellow HN readers on what features you'd like to see next. Always open to suggestions!
