A Hacker News user, hnand, created "HackerNewt," an iOS app that explores HN comments in a breadth-first manner, improving context retention in large threads. The app, previewed via an Imgur link, garnered positive feedback. Users praised its design and the developer's responsiveness to bug reports. One user reported an initial bug of duplicated items, but a refresh fixed it. Comparisons were drawn to other HN apps like HACK, and Harmonic (Android). Some users commended the ad-free, privacy-focused approach, even purchasing the premium version. Discussions arose about monetization, with some questioning the cost of dark mode. Others defended the one-time purchase model. Alternative BFS implementations like hn-reader.pages.dev and hacked.stream were also mentioned. The thread also highlighted that Swift is coming to Android, which might ease future development.
