Show HN: Skyscraper – A Native iPhone and iPad App for Bluesky

CameronBanga Monday, January 19, 2026

Hey all, will spare the marketing copy, and just share that I've very proud for the initial launch of my new app, Skyscraper for Bluesky.

I've been hanging around Bluesky for the past year, but the standard experience wasn't doing it for me. I wanted something native on my iPhone, with a Liquid Glass design.

So this is my initial release. On top of the standard Bluesky experience you would expect of a client, I also have the following features I'm excited about:

• Post Drafts — Save ideas for later • Account Backup — Export and archive your data • OAuth Support - Login without creating an app password • Thread Archival - Share popular threads with friends off Bluesky • Safari Extension — Open bsky.social links directly in Skyscraper • Trending Hashtags — See what's buzzing right now • Unified Timeline — See replies in your following feed • Mute Reposts — Silence repost-happy users without unfollowing • Post Translation — Read posts in any language

Would be appreciative of any feedback if you are a Bluesky user. As a launch promo/thank you, I'm offering 50% off for the first year ($9.99 USD), for subscription membership that includes multiple account support, some app theme customization, account archival, and more. This URL should allow you to subscribe via the App Store on your device: https://apps.apple.com/redeem?ctx=offercodes&id=6754198379&c...

The app is going live globally right now, so if not available in your region, it should be within the next few hours. There's a ton to use for free, so give it a try and if you like it, feel free to use that promo code!
