  • Release iOS app

2.1.0 - January 08, 2021

New feature

  • We added different reading modes for you to browse stories. You can skim through stories with 'Title only' mode to catch up with the world. Or you can browse stories with title, author, story point and time with 'Minimalist' mode like you do with the Hacker News origin. Or more convenience, you can see the story with its preview content in 'With content' mode. It is your choice. :)

  • We fixed the lagging issue when scrolling (to the top/bottom) or holding in the stories tab.
  • Pull-to-refresh in comments screen now works as you expected.
  • Now you can view your comment immediately after posting it.
