Open iTunes to buy and download apps.
Description
Get the official Reddit app to discover all the top trending topics, breaking news, viral videos, funny jokes and hot memes. The freshest content on the internet brought to you in one app, with infinite scroll, autoplay GIFs, and the fastest-loading interface of any Reddit app.
.-= Thousands of Communities =-.
Looking for news? Check out r/news! Need some funny jokes? Head on to /r/Jokes/ and pack a spare pair of dry pants. Or maybe you’re passionate about cats being scared by cucumbers. We are too, at r/CucumbersScaringCats!
There’s a subreddit for anyone (and everyone) to share, vote and discuss just every topic imaginably.
.-= Your Personal Content Democracy =-.
You can post it, you can share it, and you decide what is hot or not by upvoting and downvoting content. Get the socially curated, constantly updated feed of the news, fun stories, pics, and videos that interest YOU. Or what interests millions of other users on r/popular.
Unlike other social networks, on Reddit you can be yourself with your Reddit profile and persona, disconnected from your real-world identity. So your mom won’t know you’re into /r/knitting.
.-= Un-bore Yourself =-.
Tired of mildly interesting content and monotonous updates on social media feeds? Find the stories and conversations that matter to you. From entertainment news and politics to fun DIY projects and cats (lots of cats) - create your own feed of subreddit subscriptions to never be bored again.

Customer Reviews
To the mobile PM: Please don't scroll to top by tapping snoo.
Good app, better experience than mobile web, and in a lot of ways better than desktop web.
Really appreciate the different view modes - media gallery is great when looking for stuff to show off to my wife more quickly.
But I hate that tapping the snoo takes to top of page. It keeps happening completely by accident. My left thumb is often at the bottom of the screen, and a slight shift results in scrolling to the top.
Please just rely on the more common design pattern. Just tap top of screen to scroll to the top. With the snoo, I'll accidentally tap and I lose my place, 500 screens down or whatever, and then quit because I don't want to have to scroll back down again.
I suggest optimizing for endless viewing, which is always further down. If you want to allow easy access to the other view options, how about long press on snoo to open menu for hot/new/controversial? It can't be less obscure than the double tap to refresh.
They continue to add "enhancements" that annoy
Update: this app has gotten even worse since I first poster this review. This app is a joke
I can't recommend this app. I went back to it for a while and they just recently changed more stuff that makes me regret going back.
First they flipped stuff around that made it hard if you are right handed.
Now they have made it so that looking through your subbed subreddit is even harder. Next to where you scroll through your subbed subreddits they added a button to pin it to the top of the list. It's extremely easy to hit that after scrolling. You will then have scroll all the way back to the top so that you can unpin it. They removed it alphabetical from the list so you have to go all the way up.
PLEASE add a "do not ask me again" to notifications
I don't like getting notifications for anything at all. I turn them off for every app, and check things when I feel like it. I hate how when you have them off, it asks you if you want to turn them on every time you launch it. PLEASE add a "do not ask me again" thing? If the app didn't do that, I'd give it 5 stars. I originally was rating it 3 stars but you keep ignoring this, so maybe you and others will pay attention if I give you a bad rating.
