About this app

With Alerts for Reddit, you can get notifications within minutes for posts on your favorite subreddits, and posts/comments from your favorite users. Customize notifications by changing frequency and filtering with keywords.

Features:

- Add/remove/mute subreddits or users at any time to start/stop seeing notifications

- No need to link your reddit account - you can subscribe for notifications to any public subreddit or user.

- Add up to 3 notification subscriptions of your choosing for free; upgrade to Premium to receive notifications for more than 3.

- Set the notification frequency for each subreddit: "Trending: More" if you want notifications for all hot posts, "Trending: Fewer" if you only want breaking news, or "All" to get notified for all new posts. If you want "All" posts within 30 seconds of the post going live, you can upgrade to Premium Speed to enable the "All - Fast" frequency.

- Set the notification frequency for each user: "Posts only" or "Posts and Comments"

- Filter notification subscriptions by keyword. For example, if you want to receive notifications for /r/science where the title contains 'amphibian' or 'reptile' but not 'bird', you can!

- Got a Reddit app on your phone? Notifications will launch you straight to the app. No app? Notifications will bring you to Reddit via the browser.

- View recent alerts for your subscribed subreddits and users right in the app.

- Never miss the posts you care about!

Ratings and reviews

This app is exactly what I needed. I use it to keep track of a couple subreddits to keep up with sales on pc parts. The only thing I wish this app would have is the ability to blacklist certain words. For example, keyword is cpu, but I want to avoid posts with the words cooler. This way I would be able to narrow alerts to just the cpu and not cpu coolers as well (something I am not looking for).

Super lightweight, simple yet effective. I use this for r/watchexchange to be notified when people post watches for sale. Most of the good ones are sold within minutes so this app allows me to get first in line. I love the ability to be able to specify key words as well. Only improvement I could want would be to allow the use of wildcards (or even regex) in the keywords. Great app, thanks!

Works until it doesn't. By default, all the notifications are coming in silent. The app is also creating a bunch of notification categories, one per each keyword I have set. It's extremely annoying, because every notification category has its own settings. Even though none of them are set as silent, they are still coming in silent. Then I have to manually force them as alerting. Pls fix.. There should only be one category for ALL notifications. Or at least make this per subreddit (All keywords).

What’s new

- Added: "whole-word only" keywords. Now you can get notifications for posts containing the word 'cat' without also getting posts containing 'bobcat' or 'catch'!
- UI change: condensed all advanced keyword options into a dropdown for better usability
- Various small bug fixes & improvements
