Looks great.
As someone who logins using OpenID, in order for this app to be useful, I'd need that feature. Currently, I don't know of any apps that let me do that, but I bet it's very doable.
(Just open a Safari instance to let me login to my Google id via OpenID then redirect me, right?)
- BenSS 15y agoIt's doable, but I skipped it in the HN reader for iPad that I did. Why? Because of the people I know who read HN, none of them use OpenID. Unfortunately, the mobile Safari doesn't share that information with the app UIWebView. It needs to be handled within the app itself. (although you could get around it in my version but manually logging in from the comments page)
- arikfr 15y agoAs @BenSS mentioned, Safari doesn't share cookies with UIWebView object. Also I'm planning on implementing the comments views with native UI, therefore I will have to handle all the authorization myself. Not sure if I can act as "man in the middle" in this case for HN and the OpenID provider. I will look into it, but it won't make it into the first version...
