It used to be the case that an iPhone app needed to be “native” and downloaded from the App Store to utilize push notifications, but you will see that this is no longer true :)
As long-time HN users, we also included an option to subscribe to a feed of top Hacker News posts delivered to you via push every six hours. It makes it a fun little app instead of a boring demo!
Worth noting that we don't track any personal info (random UUIDs for user IDs, so not even device IDs).
