Ask HN: Is there a mobile version of HN, or an app?

7 points by retube 13y ago ↗ HN

HN renders terribly on smartphones, particularly the comments with the fixed width content + density of text. An alternative mobile version would be great. Read-only is fine - I finding tpying on mobile devices slow and cumbersome anyway.

If you search for "Hacker News" on the iOS App Store, you'll find 20-something apps for reading Hacker News. I like MiniHack[1], but I've only actually tried two of the apps.

I can second MiniHack. I'm using it right now and it works really well. It's also incredibly well-designed.

I use HackerNode on iOS, It's pretty minimal (in a good way) and works well. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/hackernode/id473882597?mt=8

I tested many HN clients for Android but this is the best one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.glebpopov.... (Hacker News Droid)
