kpgxon Ask HN: What are the HN apps you use in android?

I'm asking because I'm building an app myself. So other than login, posting, voting and commenting any other features you like?

kpgxon Ask HN: Writing my first Android app – should I use Material Design?

MD is not that hard to implement. And you can use Support Libraries to maintain the compatibility for older devices.

Cool. I tried your app and went through the reddit posts too. I guess I'll post in reddit after fixing the current issues in few weeks(Have exams in next 2 weeks). Few more questions though.

* The login function isn't still available in official API?

* How did you promote your testing community(g+ page)?

* How are the donations coming?

Thanks for the feedback.

* I was trying to imitate the web interface. That's why it seems crowded. I agree it should change.

* I was trying to get the screenshots of functionality since I only have one screen yet. (color changes after each cycle)

* Story numbers won't make the next release.

Thanks for the pointers. Do you mind sharing your client? Btw any pointers on how to get more feedback?

Hello everyone!, this is a app I have being working on recently. I know there are number of HN readers on android. But I couldn't find a one for my tastes. So I stated developing this app. News articles, comments open in default browser of the device. Click on title of the item to open the article and anywhere else to open comments. Swipe down to refresh. Swipe left and right to change the tabs. This is only the first phase of application. Lot of functions yet to be implement (you can read more in google play listing). Before developing further I would love to have some feedback. BTW I'm a CS undergraduate.Thank you.!

kpgxon Ask HN: Suggestions on a New Hacker News App for Android?

Looking good. Does the search function work? Because Firebase API doesn't seem to have a search function. You can add pull to refresh and hide the action bar when scrolling if you haven't already.
