HN Push

Web push notifications for top stories on

  • What?

    HN Push sends real-time push notifications for trending Hacker News stories with at least 30 upvotes.

  • Why?

    I created HN Push to help reduce the urge to refresh Hacker News constantly. Since I rely on HN for real-time tech news, I wanted an efficient way to stay informed without having to check the site. Receiving summaries with Apple Intelligence was an added bonus.

  • How?

    HN Push is a Progressive Web App (PWA) that sends web push notifications to your device. You can click a notification to open the story on Hacker News directly. For easy access on iOS, add the app to your home screen via the share button.
