Looks lovely, and the animations are beautiful.
If you’re looking for feature requests… long shot I know…. I’ve always wanted an HN app that has better offline support. I do most of my HN reading on the London Underground where there’s little phone signal and only wifi at stations.
The sort of things I’d love to see are: archiving the top stories and comments overnight so that no internet is required to view, loading both comments and stories at the same time, and not unloading one (requiring a re-request) when switching between them, or anything else that minimises the amount of networking required.
Otherwise, maybe more actionable feedback, the two taps to get into a story/comments feels unnecessary. As much as the animation is stunning, it feels like it’s slower to use than necessary.
- jrhey 3y agoThank you for checking our Hazumi! > I’ve always wanted an HN app that has better offline support That's a great feature request. I'll brainstorm some ways achieve this without affecting battery life too much. Maybe it could even be a toggle in settings for those who want pre-cached content. Like how YouTube or Podcasts apps do it. > the two taps to get into a story/comments feels unnecessary I'll look into this too, I have a feeling now most of HN will agree here. Thank you again for the feedback, much appreciated!
