hey HN,

I am re launching an HN client app that i built this year. It got very little traction when i launched earlier. Following YC advice to do multiple launches, I am going to give it another shot.

It’s fairly basic, but here are some of the features that I hope you would like.

- Minimal, distraction-free UI

- keyword based search functionality to see past stories.

- Dark mode support

- Breeze through comments with collapse functionality.

- Bookmark your favourite stories to read later or revisit any time

- All your reading history is saved.

- Export reading history when you want it.

I hope you give it a try! The app is free with an optional contribution for those who wish to do it.

I built Libris.fm[1] , it's a free iOS app written in swift which gives access to users for 10000+ free audiobooks.

The app is objectively better than many popular apps in this segment which have a paywall and tons of ads. However i hardly get any downloads since the launch.

I have tried posting in r/audiobooks[2] and got some decent feedback. But I don't have any other clue on how to get more users for the app.

I don't have any monetization plan other than an optional tip jar that I have placed in the app.

Looking for advice on how to make more users aware of the app. This is a side project and I don't have any maketing budget as an indie developer.
