almost perfect but one flaw makes it awful
midi fister
I've been using this app forever - but I'm about to give up on it for something that ruins the experience numerous times . if you swipe left or right the screen changes to somewhere else and you lose wherever you were and whatever you were writing if you were writing. being left handed and trying to scroll ask reddit. this becomes a frustrating nightmare. all I want is the option to completely disable this swipe action, I don't want it at all anyway. after years of this I'm about ready to switch apps even though literally everything else about this app is as simple as I could ever hope for.
Ads are taking over!
Ialaman
While I understand the reason for ads, there are some ads (from adjust) that pop up in the feed that will trigger if you try to use that area of the screen to scroll through the feeds. They’re registering a tap-and-drag as a tap to open the ad. It’s opening several times a day for me. I used this app for years but it’s driven me to install a different app.
Not as good anymore

This used to be the best reddit app, but times have moved on and baconreader has failed to stay ahead of newer, better apps. Ads are much more obtrusive now and expand if you accidentally touch (not even directly tap!) the banner while scrolling. Another glaring issue is that you can’t highlight/copy text from posts.
Ads horrible in latest version
h3dgemon
My favorite Reddit browser - but the ad popups have made this a miserable experience. Immediate delete - hoping this is corrected to a reasonable level.
Ponderous
Another Kefalonian
The interface isn't as intuitive as it could be and offers little more than the native app.
Copy url and open in safari doesnt work

Why are you blocking my links? Work 1 Star, doesn’t function
Redgifs Support
Shockzzz
App has always been good to me, just hoping for some support for redgifs soon. Very frustrating to click a post and then have to click on the url again to load the gif.
Photo, video, gif Thumbnails Rarely Load
Rob A3
This used to be such a great app! Lately, when viewing a sub - very few of the thumbnail image / video / gif previews load. Sometimes, opening a post, and then immediately going back will trigger all the thumbnails for other posts to load. Latest iOS on a 7+.
