About
Haiker is a mobile Hacker News client available on iOS and Android that provides a native reading experience with auto-translation of posts and comments into 13 languages. It supports reply notifications so users never miss a conversation, along with dark mode and bookmarks. Users can also write replies in their own language and translate them to English before posting.
Problem
Hacker News lacks a polished mobile app with translation support and reply notifications, making it hard to follow discussions on the go in non-English languages.
For
Hacker News readers on mobile, especially non-English speakers
How it works
The app fetches Hacker News content and automatically translates posts and comments into the user's chosen target language, while also enabling reply drafts to be translated back into English before posting.
