About Hacki for Hacker News

Hacki is an Android client for browsing and participating in Hacker News. Users can view stories by category, search, submit stories, and vote on stories or comments. Comments can be collapsed, and parent comments can be opened directly without scrolling back through a long thread. The app also supports polls and lets users browse their own posts and comments. Stories and comments can be pinned or marked as favorites, and downloaded for offline reading. The app remembers where the user stopped, can be opened from Android’s share sheet, and provides in-app notifications for replies to submitted stories or comments. Logging in with a Hacker News account enables account-based actions. Hacki is intended for reading and interacting with Hacker News from a phone, with offline access for saved material. The supplied description does not specify whether notifications or saved items synchronize across devices, and online actions depend on the account and service being available.
