About Hackers for Hacker News
Hackers is the best way to browse Hacker News on iPhone and iPad. It’s fast, beautiful, and thoughtfully accessible — designed to keep you in the flow of reading and discussion.
• Effortless reading. Clean typography and a distraction-free layout put the content first.
• Made for long threads. Collapse, expand, and navigate nested comments with a tap — or swipe to move through deep conversations without losing your place.
• Swipe to act. Vote on posts and comments with simple, familiar gestures.
• All the essentials. Thumbnails on posts, quick jump to comments, in-thread link handling, and blazing-fast feed pagination.
• Native to the core. Universal iPhone & iPad app, Safari View Controller for articles, iPad multitasking, Share Extension (“Open in Hackers”), and great performance.
• Accessibility first. Dynamic Type, VoiceOver-friendly structure, high-contrast themes, and careful focus order make Hackers comfortable for every reader.
• Open source. Transparent by design — explore the code, file issues, and contribute on GitHub.
Why Hackers?
• A decade of refinement focused on a simple goal: make Hacker News feel great on iOS.
• Privacy-respecting. The app collects no data. Period.
