HN Reader is a fast, focused reader for Hacker News. EIGHT FEEDS Top, New, Best, Ask, Show, Jobs — plus Past, the front page for any day back to 2006, and Comments, every new comment on the site as it lands. SEARCH EVERYTHING Search across every story ever posted, not just what is on the page. THE WHOLE THREAD, AT ONCE A discussion loads in a single request, however long it is. Collapse any branch with a tap; colored rails show how deep you are. ARTICLE OR DISCUSSION Every story has two views, one switch: read the article inside the app, or the thread. Share either. Open in your browser any time. PROFILES Tap any name: karma, join date, about, and their submissions, comments and public favorites. SAVE FOR LATER Bookmark a story and it lives on your phone, with no account and nothing sent anywhere. MADE TO BE READ Light and dark, four text sizes, six languages (English, Español, Italiano, Français, Deutsch, Русский). Animations that answer your finger. No reading history leaves your device, and ads appear only on the Saved and Settings screens, never over what you are reading. HN Reader is an independent app and is not affiliated with Y Combinator. Hacker News is a trademark of Y Combinator. Version 1 is a reader: signing in to vote and reply is not included.
