Hacker News Reader

Minihack is the best Hacker News app I've found found for iOS. I've tried almost all of the HN apps in the App Store and Minihack is the one that I keep on my homescreen. It meets all of the criteria you listed, including the bonus ones, and the dev has done a great job at keeping the app up to date and bug-free.

Thank you for this. I had been using different iOS apps for a while, some of them paid, and none of them really gave me the functionality I was looking for.

Thanks to your comment, I just tried MiniHack out. This app has beautiful typography, minimalist design and full account functionality.

The only thing I really miss after switching over to MiniHack is collapsing comments and threads. Otherwise, 9/10.

EDIT: Nevermind, just figured out how to collapse comments, it was different from other apps. 10/10 :)

I can't upvote in MiniHack, for some reason. Still use it though.

It always says Upvote Failed when I try but it is actually upvoting despite reporting otherwise.

I can't believe I didn't think to check that. Thank you!
