Funny cat photos, trending news stories, and the best discussions on the internet—these are just a few of the awesome things the official Reddit app does best.
On Reddit, there’s a community for every subject imaginable: your favorite sports team, relationship advice, memes, the latest in news and politics—all in real time.
And if you like gifs (or jifs, jiffys, glyphs, ifs, however you choose to mispronounce it), we’re positive you'll love it.
What’s that you say, girl? “What about a community dedicated solely to images of cats standing on their hind legs?”
We got that, too.
Whether you’re into movies or space travel, baking or weight training, cheesy dad jokes or more NSFW humor, world news or Hollywood gossip—or all of the above—you can instantly share your content and ideas with an audience of millions.
We’re not saying Reddit is like all your favorite apps put together. But if we were saying that, we’d tell you it has:
• the trendy headlines of Twitter
• the educational content of Quora
• the viral pics of Memebase and Imgur
• the jokesters of Tumblr
• the lols of 9GAG and theCHIVE
• the cringeworthy personal stories of FML and Fail Blog
• the rage comics of fourchan
• and the powerful, human stories found only on Reddit.
(Oops, we went full circle.)
So the next time you’re bored and need a break—wait, you’re bored right now? Why are you still reading this? Download the app already!
Those cats won’t stand on their hind legs forever...

If you want to scroll for a long time through Reddit and you click on an external link or view a picture it works but when you come back your back at the top of the list you scrolled down so you have to scroll down again. As well as I wish it would open imgur app when a imgur link was tapped and I also wish that you could choose between viewing in browser or using direct link as sometimes gifs don't work otherwise it's very nice to run and easy to use on phones

Revising again. Do the people who work on this app even use reddit? It's absolutely impossible to navigate even medium sized threads. Minimize a thread with long click takes you to the top? Great for threads with hundreds of comments! Clicking on a comment in your profile takes you to the thread but not the comment. Great, I'll just scroll through hundreds of comments to try and find mine. Oh, a thread with 3 dozen minimized conversations just randomly reset and they're all expanded again and they're in a different order now... This is not a 4.6 star app. The web version of the app is much, much better in more important ways than the ways this is better. The content is easy to see, the much more important discussion of the content is just shat on by the developers. I'm adding two stars because you add an option to browse all instead of popular

So first off Reddit is great. I love the appearance of this app and the design of how stuff looks. But you can't even save any pictures to your phone! You can't fast forward video either. The app likes to be slow on bringing up pictures before selecting them. Good app but very not well executed for what it is and wants to be. Please fix this soon!

If you like Dank memes, sexy reposts or craving off topic comment threads, you've come to the right place!! This Reddit community has it all! Drown yourself in the best of the internet, everyday!! Don't be afraid of downvotes, it'll just make the upvotes that much sweeter.Your the king of your castle, but all your neighbors have better castles. That's Reddit. Lurk,Post,Copy, Repeat. You've got mail.

I'm coming from using Bacon Reader Pro. While Bacon Reader is great, the notifications are a bit of a mess. This works great for what I need, the only features I miss are knowing how much comment karma you have and an easier way to read through comments and minimize them. I miss the little color coded comments and a way to collapse all children comments. Otherwise it's great.

Minor usability issues plague my daily experience with this app. Some infrequent crashes and instability also contributes to a 3 star rating. It's not bad, but needs work. For a concrete example, expanding nested comment replies resets my scroll to the top of the Reddit post view, forcing me to scroll all the way back down to find the comments I wanted to read. Little annoyances like that keep cropping up.

You know what I love in an app?! When it crashes all the god damn time for no reason so this was perfect!!! <sarcasm but seriously this thing crashes on my at least once in a 5 minute span. I have an older phone so maybe that's the problem but until I know that for sure I'm going one star.
The past two updates have made the app extremely unstable on my phone (Droid Maxx turbo). The app frequently loses the ability to play back gyfcat animated gifs for some unknown reason. After most recent update, the app gives an error when trying to load saying it can't reach Reddit.
So has been very glitchy since recent update. It started with the articles/posts as not showing as "read". Before, the title would be a lighter grey if you read it (in night mode), but all posts were showing like they are unread. Then, it had trouble showing replies to my comments in longer posts (like ask Reddit). Now, it can't reach reddit at all and gives the error "java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException:com.android.volley.ServerError"
The most recent update got rid of the ability to automatically travel to a specific comment when you click on a notification regarding that comment. This makes the comment system almost unusable. I don't want to search through every comment on the post to find the comment that I commented on that someone else then replied to. It's a pain. This becomes 5 star if this bug is fixed.
This app needs to add some usability features. Remembering which sort method you used last should be the first. Defaulting to Hot, each time you launch is ridiculous. Content filters are another must have. There's a reason all the third party apps and browser extensions have them.
This is the most buggy, inconsistent experience I've had with any app. Every time it gets updated, I give another chance, and so far I've uninstalled it every time. VERY DISAPPOINTED. When it works, it looks nice, but who cares if doesn't perform?
Updates are supposed to fix the app not make it worse! Can't post comments, no endless scroll, gfycat won't load, replies never bring you directly to your comment you literally would have to search through it all. Fix this crap
I have a galaxy s5. I use this app a lot, as I'm sure most people who frequent Reddit on mobile do. I love it, and it's an awesome little time waster where I get to talk to new people about stupid memes or serious politics. My problems with it are that it crashes so much, and I can't scroll past about 10 posts before the majority of them stop loading. If I scroll too far, it just crashes to the home screen and then completely reloads the app, making me lose where I was and making it so that I can hardly see older posts. 3/5.
Maybe if you could. provide us with a feature to carry on the feed from where we left out. It'd be a 5 star. The feed just comes back to original whenever I restart the app.
After the new updates, I seem to have a problem going to replies people have made towards me. It always shows an "execution error" message! It does go to the thread, but that's all it does, it doesn't go to the reply itself unless the thread is really small. Edit: I just realized I have trouble searching things too. It always tells me to try again no matter how many times or what I search! And it'd be great if it'd stop taking me to the top of the comments after collapsing one... :(
I liked reddit but lately it has turned into a site full of racist and hateful assholes. It doesn't help that it constantly crashes and that the interface is awful. If you really want to go on reddit just use the desktop site
Starting today I keep getting this error: "bolts.AggregateException" the error makes the app unusable. Please fix it as soon as possible. And I will change my rating to 5-star.
The app is good, but there is a problem recurring in the two last updates, it seems that the application can't connect to the server of Reddit. It seems to be a JavaScript error. I hope that this will be fixed since it makes the app unusable.
There are much better and easier to use Reddit apps out there. This needs a filter for blocking specific subreddits and keywords, a way to remove read posts so you don't have to scroll forever through things you've already seen, and a tap to minimize for comment threads.
When it works, it works great. I love Reddit and was excited to use the app but it literally crashes every ten minutes, at best. It's very frustrating to be looking for all that Reddit goodness only to be booted off for the fifth time in an hour. It's nearly unusable. Please please please fix and soon!!!
Some UI changes are just wrong. Having the collapsible threads hidden under a tiny button is dumb, it takes two actions for something that's critical for comment consumption. It was better how it was before, simply clicking on the thread it self. Moving the half menu items to the bottom is also dumb now my hands have to up all over the screen. These are all dumb UI decisions.
It's got great content when it works. More than half the time, posts don't load, the search feature is unusable, and after pulling up reddit on chrome (on my phone), and comparing it with the app, I can see it's a problem with the app, not the site.
Edit:Apparently the app designers read my review and realized that, despite the flaws, the app still kind of functioned. They appear to have taken steps to ensure that this is no longer the case. The newest update has rendered the app entirely unusable. Hooray, I guess. *end edit* The new update has made the app more or less unusable. It's organized poorly, it reloads the page when I'm in the middle of reading it, I can't go to another app, then come back to reddit and it still be on the same page. Basically everything that was good or useful in the app is gone
Awesome app...but there's one thing that bothers me. I think that we should be able to click on an imgur link and have it be redirected to the imgur app on our phone. I always have to go through a couple steps in order to open up an image on imgur but it'd be great if the app could easily do it for you.
Good app so far. But sometimes I get java.util.concurrent.ExecuteException errors while loading content and then says you cannot view this community. I have to try reload again and agian or restart the phone itself 🙁
It works fine for reading posts, but always has trouble opening gifs. The search bar has a 50% chance of finding the sub I'm looking for, or giving me a blank screen
New update means clicking to extend comment threads takes the screen view back to the very top of the article. Clicking on mail to view a comment and responses to it doesn't actually take you to view anything except take you back to the top of the page itself. Still cannot add flair to new posts. Still doesn't give the option to open Imgur links in the Imgur app (when the app is already installed). Post authorisation errors. Images and gifs not loading, etc. All of these things that are missing make this app horrible to use. Awaiting updates!
Not sure why they keep changing the UI so much. The layout of it has been great in the past. Now they screwed it up. I can't even use the search bar because it's broke!
As of March 25 is app is still crashing every few minutes of use, before the last few updates it worked flawlessly but now it's unusable in its current state, for me anyways. Please fix this issue.
Galaxy Note 5 user, every time my phone screen goes to sleep, and I reactivate it, the app refreshes, and I am taken back to the top of whatever I am reading. I would rate 5 stars if this stops happening.
Reddit is great, but this app needs work. Constant crashing, can't even browse for more than 5mins. Before it crashed as well, but only often, now it is constant. I'm on GS4
Its good, but eventually when a comment thread gets too long, I can no longer read the comments. I know they are there, but I have absolutely no way to view them. Its really frustrating.
I loved the second to most recent update. This new update loses your place in a thread so, not only do you have to find that random thread you stumbled on again, but you have to find your place again. It's very annoying.
Most recent update keeps crashing the app. I also cannot collapse parent comments. I will stick with the in-browser version for now.
I'm always on Reddit and as a result I find myself always using this app. The app is just way too buggy though. Going back a page after clicking a post does not make sense. Sometimes it'll take me back to the spot I wanted in the front page, while some other times it'll take me back up to the top. I really seem to have this issue when using the search function. I find it really difficult to search a topic within a subreddit. The search function itself barley works and when I do finally get it to work, I experience the same problem as I did before. I end up going back to the top of my search results rather than going back to the area of the post I clicked on.
I love Reddit. 3 stars because it keeps crashing on my Galaxy S5. Nothing is more annoying than being deep in a sub just to have it crash on you
Now that r/All is back I can change my review to a positive one. Now excuse me, I have Trump memes to view.
I'm not too sure about those sharing features. Don't particularly care for how they paste to FB, but I will say I love this app for how much knowledge I'm able to find within a community-based forum. It's really nice to get such personal experiences and such as well on certain things.
Continuously get a server error, even though the website and sync pro are working fine. Tried reinstalling and other fixes and still won't work. Going to stick with sync pro for now.
