Ask HN: Can i make a Android app for Hacker News?
Hi, This is Shekhar and I am trying to make a Native Android App for Hacker news the app is still under work and definitely needs a lot of work but When i tried to upload it to the play store I got a email saying So.
Hi Developers at ShekharGH,
After review, Hacker News Alpha 0.1, com.iamshekhargh.hackernews, has been suspended and removed from Google Play as a policy strike because it violates the impersonation policy.
So I am kinda in a fix as i really want to make it but then ill have to call it something else . Can I officially make a Hacker news app ? or is there a way to get permission from HackerNews to make an app for them. https://github.com/iamShekharGH/HackerNewsAndroidApp
Thanks
ShekharGH There are tons of hackernews apps already. Without knowing what your app looks like, maybe your branding isn't clear enough about it not being an official app?
