I love going through HN apps people have made, so here's what I think of it after using the free version a little bit.
- Comments could use some work. I feel like the comments are a bit too small. Maybe have it so you could swipe a parent comment and it'll fold the children? The layout in general looks a bit awkward when there is a long chain of comments, but I'm not sure how that could be approached differently.
- It'd be awesome to have it so swiping back from the comments page / link would take you to the main screen. It'd make browsing feel more smooth.
- Some sort of difference between read posts and unread posts would be a good idea, too.
- A night theme is pretty much a dealbreaker for me since I use my tablet most at night. That's just me being picky, though.
All in all, it feels pretty smooth, but feels more phone-oriented than tablet oriented due to everything being so small (comments, headers, etc.). Comments could use some work, but for an initial release it feels pretty solid. Great work!
Hey, I'm the developer of Clementine. This is just the initial release, we'll be adding features like account login and submission at a later date. We have a free version (with ads) available here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.elephants....
