Name change from HackerNewt to Hacko
Best HN client for iOS I’ve used. App name appears to have changed from “HackerNewt” to “Hacko for Hacker News” on July 16, 2025; probably best to mention that somewhere in the 1.5.1 release notes or even in the description, as there are quite a few mentions of the former name online.

App doesn’t work anymore. Nothing loads at all and spinner just spins. Tried clearing cache and uninstalling and reinstalling app. Disappointed I paid for this. Update 6/5/24 - Developer quickly fixed the issue with the app and responded with the feedback. Kudos for listening to feedback and updating. Updating to 5. Thanks!
