Sometimes I wish the Apollo [0] app developer, Christian Selig, would create a HN app using the bones of the Apollo app but that would probably just increase my HN browsing time whereas now I normally only browse HN on desktop.

- thrdbndndn 5y agoHa, I have a similar first-world problem. I'm so used to the Reddit app rif is fun, to a point that any HM apps I have tried feel "wrong" as soon as they're different from it and I constantly feel frustrated. I ended up just not read HN much on my phone and when I do, I just use the webpage.
- iwebdevfromhome 5y agoI love Apollo! It’s the definitive Reddit experience for me. Do you know if HN or any third party provides an API so that devs can play around building mobile interfaces ?
- sorahn 5y agoHacker news provides its own api, but it's not as easy to use as you would like. https://github.com/HackerNews/API#design https://github.com/HackerNews/API#design
- kevingrahl 5y agoI’m currently using “HACK for Hacker News” which is similar to Apollo. Don’t get your hopes up to high though.
- sorahn 5y agoI have this exact sentiment. I wished for the same thing with Alien Blue when it was the king of 3rd party reddit apps. I'm also using HACK (same as one of the other commenters in this thread), but it's not quite as nice as Apollo.
- joshstrange 5y agoReplying to you now from HACK. This will do but I’ll still pine for Apollo for HN.
