Is it different to reddit's app?

Yeah, isn't that a reddit-specific app?

i.reddit.com versus their app for example

No, the reddit app is great.

Reddit tries to tell me about these things every time I visit, but I just don't see the point. Does the app improve anything in comparison to the website?

Facebook's app is popular. Reddit's app isn't.

It's the best reddit app for Android, BTW.

Well to be fair the reddit app is wayyyyyy better than the web interface and works amazingly well.

Kinda and I usually use reddit on mobile app because reddit website on mobile is terrible and on pc its not appealing enough. So I use mobile app. Mobile app also sucks a bit.

Wow I've never heard of this but that is a really cool app, I'll definitely check it out. Do you know of anything similar for reddit?

I prefer the reddit native app than the website reddit.com on my iphone 5, in my opinion navigation is faster and the information is presented more clearly.

Yes, it’s combined between Reddit web, app, and Apollo.

I assume you must be talking about the mobile app, rather than the "mobile experience" of the Reddit website. And it's just occurred to me that the author may have been referring to the same.

I've never used the app but I presume it is a lot better than the mobile website.

Then how is there a Reddit iOS app?

bulbosaur123 | karma 174 | avg karma 0.96 · | 2023-06-12 02:19:38

No, they didn't. There is official reddit app, I don't understand what the whole fuss is about.

willio58 | karma 3274 | avg karma 3.07 · | 2021-12-26 21:57:59

I doubt this, Reddit has had their own app for years now and every Reddit mobile page on the web nags you to download it

yohann305 | karma 627 | avg karma 1.92 · | 2018-11-13 15:49:32+00:00

your app mechanics aren't that much different than Reddit, am i wrong? How is Reddit doing it without being removed?

ketamine__ | karma 716 | avg karma 0.9 · | 2021-01-18 03:47:50+00:00

I use the app. It's fine for reading comments -- which is most of the reddit experience.

bwat49 | karma 272 | avg karma 1.62 · | 2023-06-02 08:20:57

what apps did you try? I use RIF (reddit is fun) and it's much better than the official app. The UI is much cleaner (looks like a proper mobile version of the 'old' reddit) with much better information density.

raverbashing | karma 22421 | avg karma 1.64 · | 2021-05-02 19:13:03+00:00

Oh so taken from the same page as the Reddit App it seems
