What does the word "Materialistic" have to do with Hacker News? I did a web search to see if I'm missing something, but it looks like it's just a name that does not fit.

How about "Hacker News client by Trung", or "Trung HN" for short.

When I created it material design was a hot thing, so I just randomly came up with that name. Now it's not relevant anymore but I keep the name to avoid confusion for existing users.
You might consider updating the name to something like "Materialistic for Hacker News" so it's more clear and easy to find.
It's a nod to the Material design framework that was used for the project.
Second that.

I was stumped multiple times trying to find this app under apps starting with letter "H" on my phone. Moved it to home screen now, but the name can definitely be improved.
