Need redgif support and now ads are more intrusive
Kvayjfe
Recent update didn’t add redgif support but it did add more intrusive ads
Was my favorite reddit app, until it started to significantly drain my battery
itsmhuang8
I noticed a few days ago that my phone battery would go from 100 to 20% by noon with minimal use. I checked my battery usage in the settings and noticed that for this app, with 5 min on screen, there was 12 HOURS of background activity. What is it doing? Mining bitcoin or something? Yes my background app refresh is off, but I usually leave the app open and just switch apps, which has worked for me for the most part and no other apps have such significant background activity usage. I don’t want to explicitly close all my apps after I’m done using them just because of this issue. But if you are already used to doing that, this app will probably work fine for you. So I’ve deleted the app and have decided I will look for another app to browse Reddit with. Now my battery is at 80% at noon.
Cannot create xxxea an account

Cannot create an account. Their sign up GUI says only “care to try these again” no matter what I do. I’ve triple checked that my passwords match and my username is unique. It won’t tel me what I’ve done wrong, all it says is “care to try these again?” Useless broken app, one star unless someone can tell me its fixed
Worth the money!

This is by far the best reddit app in the App Store, it is well worth the money to remove the ads. I've used all the others and this is by far the best way to browse reddit. Only thing I’d say I would like to see, is a system default theme option. I don’t like having to manually change the theme based on time of day, its the only app that I use regularly that hasn’t integrated this feature yet.
Sounds won’t play if ringer is off
Meowzerz'''
In this newest update, sounds can now be played from imgur and gycat links with the in app viewer but only if the ringer is on. Please make it so that there is an option for the sound to play even when the ringer is off for those of us who like to have their phone on silent.
Nonsense

Most recent update added FULL SCREEN ADS when scrolling. To the developer: i will NEVER use ANYTHING that intrudes on my browsing the way your ads currently do.
Ads, Gus, and more!
JeffGSanDiego
Ads are 1/6 of content - doing the math, that’s a lot! Lost of long-standing bugs that have been reported and never fixed. Rime to find a new client...
Thanks for lying about what the updates are.

Now there are more advertisements everywhere that are sometimes difficult to get away from without accidentally clicking.
Image display problems
Pete The Chop
I’ve always enjoyed Bacon Reader. Lately, however, many images don’t display at all, some animation/video types display as an image instead of being playable, and the videos that do play have no sound.
