Beta Tester Feedback
"It’s fast and smooth! I love using Moon. Was just using it now for the last 20 minutes, and it’s so fast, and gives a great twitter stream like feeling. I’m grateful for the time and effort you’ve put into it. It’s a very enjoyable way to read Indie Hackers."
"It’s been really nice having an easy way to browse the forums. It’s so much nicer than the web experience."
"Moon is very clean. I like. Reminds me (in performance and layout) of Apollo for Reddit. Keep up the awesome work!!"
"Such a pretty app. Can’t wait for future updates!"
"Really enjoying Moon so far – the experience is just so much better than the crappy slow website. It significantly increases my engagement with Indie Hackers. The app is blindingly fast for seeing what’s going on and reading the discussions. I’m much more of a lurker than an active participant though so actually it’s almost feature complete for someone like me."
"Love Moon so far! Branding is on point with IH. Can’t wait to see what comes next."
"I really like the UI design a lot . Everything feels very intuitive and smooth."
"I'm a designer for 10 years and I must say Moon is one of the best designs ever, smooth, simple, fast, everything is easy to navigate quickly and it saves me time!"
Moon is a
side-project.
Thanks!
Keep an eye out for an email from me. It has your download link.

Moon is still growing despite the lack of shipped updates (sorry about that)!
To keep it short, Moon now does these cool things:
Markdown rendering in posts, comments and bios
Filter by milestones, all posts or group posts
Access any group on IH (the list is no longer hard-coded lol)
Lets you quickly search for a group

User Profiles and Way Too Much Other Stuff
I've made a ton of updates and improvements over the past 3 months and I have no idea why I waited this long to ship them. But I'm pretty stoked to get user profiles into Moon!
User profiles in Moon! See people's bios, comments, posts and products
Tapping a button for a feature that's not yet implemented (e.g. upvote) prompts you to continue on the website instead of doing nothing
Tapping the active tab icon jumps back to the top of the feed

Moon Private Beta Launch!
Moon is now available for private beta! If you're an Indie Hacker on the go and want to give my iOS client a spin let me know and I'll send an invite.
