Hackers is an iPhone app for reading Hacker News on the go. It's optimised for quickly catching up on the latest news and comments without getting in your way.
- Comments replies are collapsed, leaving you to decide whether you want to read the replies without them getting in the way.
- Remembers which posts you've read.
- Filter by top news, new news, or Ask HN.
- Instapaper mobilizer support.
Hackers is available for sale in the App Store
